With decades of leadership experience in both global corporations and the nonprofit sector, Kelly serves as a Catalyst Coach, guiding individuals and teams through meaningful personal and organizational evolution.

Kelly’s coaching and training is rooted in the belief that transformation starts within. She creates a safe, sacred space for leaders to unlock their brilliance, regulate through stress, and step into their highest potential.

Kelly has led the development of a $100M business unit and transformed a nonprofit into a thriving, values-driven team. Now based in Lawrence, Kansas, she embraces a life of seasonal flow, community, and purpose — and channels this alignment into every coaching and consulting experience.
