Kelly has always been passionate about social justice and equality, which is what has driven her to begin working with nonprofits. She previously worked as a research coordinator in a psychiatry neuroimaging lab, where she learned a lot about the grant submission process and honed her coordinating skills. She prides herself in particular on her organization skills and is excited to use them to help nonprofits through working with Elevate.

Kelly graduated from The College of New Jersey with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Mathematics. During her time in college, she worked with multiple on-campus clubs in organizing volunteer and fundraising projects. Now that she has settled into a new area, she is excited to start volunteering at local LGBTQ organizations.

In her spare time, Kelly can be found hanging out with her partner and their pets. She also enjoys playing video games and crocheting.
