CURRENT MISSION To evolve and have a DAMN good time while doing it! 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 (OMIGOD!! 20?!!! already?) years experience serving international nonprofits, development agencies, academic institutions, the arts, and social entrepreneurial enterprises on four continents--mainly in East and Southern Africa, Central America, NE Asia, and North America--on all levels. Now known as THE GOOFY GURU, Kelly's personal and professional mission is to evolve (and thus, change 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. PHILOSOPHY just read the Tao de Ching or The Desiderata for my philosophy on life or anything by Dr. Seuss
