​My name is Kelley and I am a first-year grad student here at CSU. I grew up in Idaho, and have lived in Erie, Colorado for the past 12 years or so. I started my undergrad at CU Boulder, and finished my degree in Digital Media at Milligan College in the northeast corner of Tennessee. At Milligan I played softball and worked for the student newspaper and broadcast team. I am passionate about international mission work and I have traveled to Kenya, Hungary, and Ecuador on mission trips with groups from Rocky Mountain Christian Church. My research interest is primarily in how media is used in international organizations to cater to people from different cultures. When I am not traveling or studying I love landscape photography, skiing, hiking, climbing, running, cycling, triathlons, and pretty much anything else you can do outside!
