She has experience with literature reviews; developing policy recommendations; program development, management, and outreach; and data collection, visualization, and reporting. She has given professional presentations at community, state, and national conferences, and has experience coordinating similar events. Finally, she has experience with stakeholder engagement and collaboration.

Kelly has been trained in Photovoice, a Community Based Participatory Research method, as well as the Positive Culture Framework and the Communities That Care framework. She has also been trained in data visualization through the Evergreen Data Visualization Academy.
