About ME:
I'm Jeff Kallin. I grew up in Medway, Mass. My Wife Jill and I were married in 2011. I moved to South Carolina in 2003 to attend Clemson, graduating in 2007 with a degree in Sport Management and in 2009 with a Master's of Human Resource Development.
I began work full-time in Clemson's Sports Information department in 2009 upon graduation, and spent five years as a sport contact, working as a traditional PR contact with several of our teams before moving to a full-time creative role in 2014.
As the lead designer for Clemson Athletics, I oversee production of an average of 5,000+ deliverables each year from animation, video, web and social graphics to large-scale prints for facility branding and print material. I have implemented brand standards across the athletic department and work to empower dozens of staff and students through design training and education. My work helped generate more than 400M impressions for Clemson's social channels last year alone.
I also serveD on the University's Staff Senate, and I TEACH A class in clemson's Graphic Communications department on Digital Media Design.
Students I have worked or collaborated with have gone on to jobs with Adobe, Rutgers, ESPN, the Atlanta Falcons, UNC, Oregon, and Michigan.
I live in Easley, S.C., with my wife, Jill, and we welcomed our son MASON in NOVEMBER 2016.
