Kelly is a caffeine-based life form who has an unnatural obsession with tree sloths and pugs. It has been said that her laugh can be heard across campus. She graduated from the University of California, San Diego, where she competed on the inner-tube water polo team. However, she considers herself a bit of a rebel, as she has never waited the full 15 minutes after eating before getting in a pool. She is deathly afraid of cheese sticks and driving behind small trucks filled with household goods. She does not like to eat potato chips that are folded over onto themselves because at that point, they are more like worthless taco shells. She is a member of the pro-Oxford comma faction, preferring to avoid ambiguity. She has never eaten a Big Mac (and doesn’t intend to). Though she works on the skill daily, Kelly has not yet been able to master the art of negotiating with her 7 year old. She shares a passion for Disneyland with her 10 year old and bonds with her husband at Chipotle. Kelly has a Master’s degree in education, an administrative credential, and considers it a privilege to have been able to spend the last 15 years sharing in the crazy that is middle school.
