Chelsea was born on January 6, 1987, in Arlington, VA, and grew up in Greensboro, NC. As a child and teenager, Chelsea spent her summers visiting her extended family in Savannah, GA, which became her favorite city that she considered a second home. Chelsea graduated from Ragsdale High School with honors before graduating from Savannah College of Art and Design with a B.F.A. in Photography. Chelsea was a Kontoor Brands, Inc. Graphic Designer, and an Adobe Certified Expert. Chelsea had the most loving heart, she passionately loved everyone in her life, helping others, and rescuing dogs. On a Sunday afternoon, Chelsea was happiest watching football while drawing with her dogs cuddled up against her.

Chelsea is survived by her parents, maternal grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who all brought her great joy. Through her photography and her gift of design, she left this earth a more beautiful place than when she arrived.
