Kaci Smith
I’m passionate about bringing ideas to life through motion design that’s fun, vibrant, and full of personality. When I’m not creating, I’m busy as a teaching assistant for School of Motion, co-founder of Mothers of Mograph, and helping build community as a staff member of Camp Mograph. Outside of that, you’ll find me at the park with my daughter and our pug, crafting, or digging into some garden therapy. But what I love most? Collaborating with fellow creatives to make something truly special—and a little bit magical.
