About Us

Kellie Raines
Founder and Executive Producer
I’m a theatre kid at heart — grown up (maybe), graced with grey streaks, and still chasing stories with curiosity and now a mic and a paintbrush. I trained as an actor, writer, and director, taught myself to paint with bold strokes and bolder feeling, and built a 23-year career in nonprofit media supporting the creation of content that informs, uplifts, and dares to dig deeper.
​
Now, I’m stitching all those threads together into a living tapestry of sound and story.
​
My podcast A Gather of Gatherings is part love letter, part linguistic exploration — a nerdy, theatrical, and joyfully curious dive into the world through the lens of collective nouns. (Go ahead, try to pick just one. Mine? A charm of hummingbirds — delicate, dazzling, a little mysterious.)
​
Each episode comes with a visual art companion — a brushstroke of interpretation, a poetic footnote in color and form — and other creative works.
​
I'm also co-producing a new podcast on women’s self-defense — part story, part strategy, all strength — debuting in June 2025. Stay tuned for more info!
​
In everything I make, I’m searching for the sacred in the everyday, the extraordinary in the overlooked, and the magic that happens when sound, sight, and soul meet.
And I'm eager to connect and collaborate with like minded artistic curiosity lovers!
