Welcome
I'm Kellie Torio, a Visual Artist and Outdoor Enthusiast based in Los Angeles, CA.
I’m passionate about planning, organizing, and executing tasks to conquer my mountains—both literal and figurative.
I hold an Associate of Arts Degree in Visual Communications from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM). With a deep appreciation for thoughtful design and storytelling, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with non-profit organizations and small businesses to amplify their missions, build communities, and strengthen their social media presence.
In addition to my creative background, I bring 10 years of experience in global sourcing management, supply chain optimization, and consumer goods. I specialize in developing supply strategies, enhancing supplier relationships, and leveraging data-driven insights to optimize inventory, improve cost efficiency, and ensure high fulfillment rates.
I’m also a dedicated volunteer with Sierra Madre Search and Rescue, where I currently serve on the Board of Directors as Vice President. In this role, I lead our outstanding class of Probationary Members through an 18-month training program to become professional mountain rescuers. Previously, I served as the Member at Large, acting as the liaison between Team Members and the Board to enhance standard operating procedures.
Outside of work, I’m a proud mother to an almost 8-year-old daughter and a self-proclaimed fun hog. You’ll often find me in the mountains—snowboarding, rock climbing, or peak bagging.
