About

My name is Kristen Titsworth, and I’m a web designer, problem-solver, and digital strategist. I work at the College of Southern Maryland as the Web Services Director and I’m also the owner of Let It Be Creative, LLC, where I design and build websites and do freelance design work for clients.

I’ve had the honor of being published by POLITICO, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Sports Illustrated, The News & Observer, Discovery Education, The Daily Tar Heel, and Reesenews. I’ve designed and launched about 30+ websites for a variety of businesses and start-ups. I’ve been doing freelance work off and on for 7+ years now, and I’ve been doing some form of design for as long as I can remember.
