Photography
Kelly's Photography has been featured in Vista Magazine, Photographer's Forum Annual 2002 and Photographer's Forum Best of
College Annual 2005. Her photographic Exhibits include the Fountain Hills First Annual Photographic Exhibit (by invitation only), The
Fountain Hills Third Annual Cultural Council Exhibit, and Situational Awareness, a group exhibition and fundraiser for AdBusters
Magazine and MoveOn.org (2004). She also has had photography published in Burlington College's literary magazine The Queen

In addition, Kelly pioneered the 'Storyboard Wall of Fame' for the Arizona Lost Boys Center, in Phoenix, Arizona. The Storyboard Wall
of Fame features portraits of Sudanese refugees living in the United States, along with their stories of personal struggle and
redemption. The Wall of Fame was created in honor of the struggles Sudanese people faced due to recent conflict in Sudan, and was
intended to help create a greater sense of community here in the United States where the 'Lost Boys' have resettled.
