Kelley has been with Lower Shore CASA since October of 2022. Born and raised on the Eastern Shore, she graduated from Salisbury University with her degree in Elementary Education. Prior to joining the CASA team, she was employed for 12 years as a teacher in both Worcester and Wicomico counties. Her passion for working with and educating youth saw her serve in diverse educator roles from pre-kindergarten through middle school. Stepping away from the classroom to spend time with her own children, Kelley knew that when she returned to the workforce she wanted to continue to make a difference in the lives of local youth in a new way. The opportunity to assist children in need throughout our lower shore counties in the role of Volunteer Supervisor presented itself and she knew it would be a perfect fit. Kelley currently lives in Wicomico County with her husband, 2 young children, and 2 rescue pups.
