About Kelly Walsh
Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?\"-Mary OliverAs a recent Health Science graduate of Northeastern University, I am passionate about integrating my dedication to community care, harm reduction, advocacy, and education with my professional career as I enter this next chapter of my life. I have over 4 years of direct community work, service, education, and advocacy in sectors ranging from sexual health education and sexual violence prevention to school-based policy and partnership management. I pride myself in my ability to empathetically meet people and communities where they are at and reflect the real needs of the people I interact with. My core values that I look for in work-based settings and uphold in my own life include accessibility, intentionality, equity, and collaboration. My love for music spurs my love for connecting with others on a professional and personal level and allows me to approach challenges and setbacks with a creatively analytical lens. For personal interests, I frequently enjoy performing covers and originals at open mics, collaging, writing, caring for my plants, and slam poetry. Feel free to reach out and connect!
