Summary
Kelsey Hunter is a founder and CEO with nine years of experience building product-led businesses and designing delightfully simple commerce experiences for social-first sellers. As founder of Paloma PBC, she leads development of platform-agnostic, social point-of-sale solutions that scale from indie creators to growing brands, drawing on hands-on product, UX and early engineering hiring experience. Her background spans startup design leadership and product roles at Button, Percolate and Vive, where she established research-driven design processes and launched MVPs for web and mobile. Based in Los Angeles with a BFA in Graphic Design, she combines visual craft with product strategy and a bias for shipping, often stepping into engineering-adjacent work to bridge design and development. An understated strength is her repeated role building initial design functions and hiring foundations that let early-stage teams scale.
