Kelsey, an avid advocate for following your gut, walked an unpredictable path throughout her years in college. From the beginning, she wanted to teach high school English and majored in education, so that she could bestow her own love of writing and reading upon young adults. As her first year in college progressed, she wasn't sure if she wanted to continue this path, and decided to make a change. Business was appealing to her, because of how applicable it would be in the future to a number of different fields. Kelsey then chose to major in marketing, then switched to finance early in her Junior year, and finally decided on management at the end of her Junior year.

While studying management, Kelsey strove to never lose sight of her love for writing. She kept her passion busy by filling her electives with writing classes, with her favorites being creative writing I and creative writing II. Creative writing I introduced her to poetry, which she had little to no exposure to beforehand. She quickly grew to love reading and writing it, and her professor proclaimed she was the most drastically improved by the end of the semester.

Kelsey also found it to be important to intertwine her love for writing with professional needs for it. She took multiple business writing courses that focused on grammar, formatting, and tone for different audiences, as well as how to approach difficult writing situations (like how to handle a disgruntled customer, etc.)

She graduated in the spring of 2015 with a diploma in hand, and a fire in her heart to continue kindling her passion for writing in the years to come.
