Fun Facts About Kelsey:
- What inspires you?
I am inspired by the compassionate people who surround me. My family, friends, colleagues, and students inspire me every day. I look up to those who actively work to make a positive change in our world and who stand up for what is right. - What volunteer or passion projects do you do outside of work?
I am a volunteer for Make-A-Wish! I love visiting with kids and their families to uncover their true wishes. - What was your favorite subject in school?
Thinking back to my time as an undergraduate at MSU, my favorite classes were definitely the sciences, especially anatomy. I still find it so interesting! If I didn't follow the path to being a counselor (which I have no regrets about!), I think I would have gone into the medical field.
