When she’s not working, Kelly can be found baking various desserts, practicing yoga or barre, reading novels and spending time with her husband, dog and two cats. She has a drive to use her personal experience having a rare sleep disorder to raise awareness as much as she can for sleep health and sleep disorders. The result of this interest is a desire to further her education in health care administration in the future.
