KELSEY MCKNIGHT HOSE

SENIOR DESIGNER

kelsey@angelineguidodesign.com

Kelsey is originally from Celina, a small town just north of Dallas. While not entirely sure what she wanted to do out of high school, she decided to pursue a business degree from The University of North Texas, graduating in 2015. Post graduation, Kelsey began working for a high-end furniture and lighting company and soon realized her heart was in design. She made the decision to go back to school for her Bachelors of Fine Arts in Interior Design from The Art Institute of Dallas. At AI, Kelsey quickly learned drafting and rendering software and took those skills to a commercial interior design firm. During her time in commercial design, Kelsey contributed to various workplace and healthcare interior projects.

After 2 years and a very persuasive phone call from Angeline herself, Kelsey decided to make the jump to residential. She came to AGD in 2021, where she was hired as a Design Assistant. With her years of experience in the design industry both before and after getting her design degree, Kelsey quickly showed what an asset she was to the AGD team. She was able to use her skills from both her degrees and her work experience to be extremely organized and thorough in construction and furnishings projects, not to mention she has a great eye for design! Because of this, after 6 months Kelsey was promoted to Junior Designer and shortly thereafter was promoted to Senior Designer.

With her personal style being casual and comfortable, her home is filled with art she’s collected and plants she’s propagated. Kelsey enjoys spending time with her husband Logan and weenie dog Obi-Wan and listening to the latest true crime podcast. On the weekends you can find Kelsey at a live show or on a patio with a Ranch Water in hand.
