Kelli Meyer

I'm a UX and systems designer finishing a B.A. in Digital Innovation & Design at Boise State (August 2026). I came to design the long way around — roughly two decades running hospitality operations, most recently as a Regional Operations Manager — which is really where I learned to read complex systems and find the friction people quietly route around.

I design for that friction. My work tends to land where confusing systems meet the people who have to use them anyway: taxpayers reading school-district budgets, hobbyist engineers drowning in part choices, patients trying to orient inside an emergency room, plant lovers who can't rely on sight. I'm comfortable across the whole arc — research and synthesis, interface and prototype, and increasingly the code and data underneath, working in Figma, Python, SQL, and tools like Cursor and Claude.

I founded and ran The Levy Feed, a civic-tech venture developed through Boise State's Venture College incubator (concluded May 2026). Outside the work: French and Middle Eastern cooking, white-water rafting, and 34 houseplants that have opinions.
