Kelly's background is in nursing and management. As a nurse, Kelly saved lives and managed other nurses. She made Aliyah in 2020, with her husband, three children, and two dogs. Her challenging Aliyah process showed her the many struggles new Olim face. Inspired to make a difference, she co-founded The Yad L’Olim Shop (formerly Keter Ukrainian Support) to assist the Ukrainian Olim. Kelly is passionate about helping new Olim acclimate to Israel while supporting them with the utmost dignity. She received her nursing degree from Touro College and her BSN from Wayne State University. She currently resides with her family in Jerusalem.
