Kelli has worked in education for over 30 years. First as a Business education teacher at Cedar Falls High School for 20 years and now as an Education Consultant at the Iowa Department of Education. Kelli’s interest in adoption matters evolved from the events that occurred with the adoption of her grandson Grayson in September of 2015. Seeing the impact this will have on Grayson for the rest of his life, and knowing the emotional and financial tolls of all involved, she is excited to be a full partner in helping Grayson’s Gifts make their goals and help adoption become a reality for many more families.
