For the past 17 years, Kelley Knapp has expanded her lighting industry knowledge to include customer service at a major lighting manufacturer, retail sales at a lighting showroom, and later as a sales representative at several prominent independent lighting agencies with an emphasis on working with interior designers and other trade professionals.
Born and raised in New England, Knapp was most recently affiliated with Gannon Sales Agency. “I am delighted to announce the creation of Northern Lights Sales agency and [my appointment as] New England sales representative for UTTERMOST |Revelation. I am beyond grateful to my peers and family who have encouraged and supported me along this unexpected journey,” Knapp said in a statement, adding, “Bringing both my customers’ and their clients’ home furnishing visions to life has always been – and will continue to be – a true passion of mine. I am excited to serve the New England region and share all that Uttermost | Revelation has to offer in 2025 and beyond.”
Knapp will focus on the interior design and home furnishings communities.
“I have been beyond blessed to have developed so many incredible relationships over the past 17 years,” she stated. “I have already been so touched by the outpouring of support and words of encouragement, from an amazing support system of both dearest peers and new acquaintances.”
Being approached by Uttermost | Revelation to take on this new endeavor was a pivotal moment for Knapp. “This type of opportunity doesn’t come around that often, and I knew this was that moment,” she explained. “We all reach a point in our careers where we can either step forward into something new and intimidating, or step backward into the familiar and comfortable. I’ve decided I am ready to take that step forward. I am grateful for all of the past agencies and teams I have worked with, and the experiences and lessons each provided me, which helped me sharpen my skillsets and build my confidence to take this next step. It has been great being back [in New England] on my ‘home turf’ and doing what I love. The Northern Lights name and logo are very personal to me for that reason — with my New England roots and each star representing my guiding lights/family (Andrew Blake and Erin). Becoming part of the Uttermost | Revelation team is such an honor. I cannot wait to bring all that this amazing company has to offer to the New England home furnishings and designer communities.”
Knapp will be joined by Terry Mullen, a sales representative with more than 30 years of experience at Uttermost | Revelation. “With his tutelage and expertise, we should hit the ground running for 2025,” she stated. “I am thrilled to have him on the team and excited for what we can do together over the course of next year.”
