Kristen Harris

Owner

Kristen doesn’t just work with creative people, she is one, too. Thirteen years as a designer, art director and creative manager for Express, Structure, Limited Too and Victoria’s Secret gave her an eye for talent and a passion for working with creative people.

After years of wishing there was a better way to connect with creative people for projects or positions, she and Catherine decided to fill that need themselves.

Portfolio Creative gives her the opportunity to help other creatives achieve success in their own careers. Whether working with them directly or from behind the scenes, Kristen is the office cheerleader for every candidate and is proud to be a part of their personal and professional success.

Kristen is a Certified Staffing Professional and an active member of the American Staffing Association. She supports the local creative and business communities through her work with organizations like CSCA, AdFed Columbus, Columbus Chamber, and NAWBO Columbus. A 20+ year resident of Columbus, she’s a graduate of Columbus College of Art and Design with a BFA in Retail Advertising.

Free time is spent with a household full of males (one human, two canine and a feline), and is filled with lots of trips to the park, reading, gardening, and a variety of crafty pursuits. On the weekends, you might find her hanging around Clintonville at the Farmer’s Market or library, and window shopping for vintage jewelry or knitting supplies.
