Kellee Khalil: Taking Care of Business

Growing up in Los Angeles, Kellee Khalil has been a part of the exciting bustle of business since she can remember. The daughter of a successful serial entrepreneur and creative floral designer, Kellee learned to love the creative art of design, and established a fervor for business at an early age. Her inherit knack for business dates back to childhood when Kellee recalls starting a friendship bracelet “company,” turning her fellow third graders into a full blown assembly line operation to later running her own online boutique in high school.

A graduate of the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business, Kellee received her business degree with an emphasis from Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies.  She shined in business school and finished at the top of her class, receiving an excellence award for her innovative business plan. After school she spent three years working in corporate finance and in her first year became the highest grossing sales executive in the firm. Having also dabbled in entertainment marketing and event planning throughout her career, Kellee made the decision to take her love of business to a new level and help other companies grow through her consultancy.  Her areas of expertise include marketing and branding solutions, revenue generation, business organization, information management, and innovation of products and services. In 2008, Kellee began consulting with her sister Leila’s Be Inspired PR to help it grow to become the leading public relations firm for the wedding industry.  With tremendous success, Kellee soon joined the agency full time and today, the dynamic sister-team continue to take the wedding world by storm with their innovative ideas and leadership.

Currently Kellee resides in Hollywood, CA where she handles business development for Be Inspired PR and manages the firm’s entertainment partners.
