Kelly has been dancing and performing since she was a kid. At age 15, she fell in love with salsa, and while she has explored and taught many styles from ballroom to folkdance, she always seems to find her way back to Latin dance. In 2019, she moved to Seattle and began training and teaching here at SDS. 

Kelly specializes in Salsa and Bachata, and teaches leads, follows, and couples of all levels. She cares deeply about her students' growth, as dancers and as individuals, and she loves helping people discover the joy that she has always found in dancing.
