Fran built out the templates for our huge paid media requirements – hundreds of ads that would take multiple days is now taking half the time. Fran continued the 'automation' theme for our group in 2024 by building an automated template in Adobe Photoshop that makes it a controlled, organized and much easier process. Changes are universal across templates as well – making it easy to update.
Fran has a great personality, sense of humor, attention to detail, problem solving skills, and talent. He's a valuable and key member of the team and Ansys.

As a former colleague of Fran's, I already knew that his work was exemplary – that's why I reached out to him for our website! But, his work on this project absolutely exceeded even my expectations. Fran's creative spark allowed our team to create the vision for the website, and once that was complete, Fran was the critical resource we needed to transform that vision into reality. In addition, Fran worked so well with our web designer that we barely needed to manage that portion of the work.
We are perfectionists & therefore were tough customers, but Fran was patient and professional every step of the way. We couldn't be happier with the finished product! We will be using Fran on many more projects and would highly recommend his work to any organization. Thanks again, Fran!

I have worked with Fran Kelly in a number of different graphic design capacities for more than a decade. I first worked with him as a consultant, then recruited Fran as a full-time employee as our company’s lead graphic designer. For the five years Fran reported to me, he delivered impactful and successful graphics in support of corporate identity, product branding, websites, event marketing, advertising, newsletters, and promotional campaigns. With salient creativity at the heart of all of his work, our integrated marketing deliverables always had a modern, fresh, and consistent “look and feel” and messaging, making our company and its products easily recognizable in a conservative high tech industry. Most recently, I worked with Fran on designing an ideal logo for a local non-profit charity’s fundraiser. In all projects I have partnered with Fran on through the years, he has been a pleasure to work with—creative, original, and professional. He always delivers quality, memorable work and personally makes sure every client is satisfied above and beyond expectations. I highly recommend Fran and will continue to work with him for my graphic design needs, as I always have confidence his creativity.
