About me

Kelly Recipe: 1/4 Indiana Jones; 1/4 Mother Teresa; 1/4 Hunter S Thompson; 1/4 Dr. Seuss--with a side of wasabi. Originally from Washington DC, Kelly has 20+ years experience serving international nonprofits, development agencies, academic institutions, the arts, eco- social entrepreneurial enterprises and eco-tourism venues on four continents--mainly in East and Southern Africa, Central America, NE Asia, and North America--on all levels. Kelly's personal and professional mission is to EVOLVE and therefore, transform the world... and have a DAMN good time while doing it! How does she do it? By showing people how to integrate JOY, PLAY and LAUGHTER into ALL aspects of LIFE! When she is not working, Kelly can usually be found in someone's baby pool with a pomegranate margarita.

Preferred location

Currently, I am doing work-trade (*which includes social media marketing, sail crew, cleaning, cooking for guests and crew...basically, whatever is most needed at the time!) at Five Elements Adventure Center in Marina Vallarta, Puerta Vallarta, Mexico and I am having a great time! However, I always welcome the opportunity to explore and experience other parts of Mexico!
