About Max Kelley

Let’s start here: I’m a traveler. And a writer.

Producing fun, silly, and engaging words is my bread and butter (mmm, butter) and I'm interested in creating highly informative yet entertaining articles for my wonderful internet audience. 

I'm also a super awkward human in general and I love to share the stories of the potentially embarrassing moments I get myself into. 

In my time as a writer I've covered everything from blogging and news reporting to marketing and SEO. I plan to continue sharing my words with you all as long as I am breathing. And then once I've been converted into a zombie I'll keep on sharing.
