Ben Montgomery

Kelsey, has a clear passion for education and helping the learner advance in a multidimensional manner. We both made a number of courses together for undergraduate and postgraduate students. During that time she conducted exemplary work, designing course materials and helping a student community with various creative projects. I would endorse her and know that she would thrive in any educational or management setting. Projects with Kelsey were always conducted thoroughly and efficiently, with the target audience in mind. She also could manage teams and coordinate with external business partners to advance the brand.

Kelsey has been a colleague of mine over the past several years within Higher Education in Seoul, South Korea and in Toastmasters International. I can attest to the fact that she is simply a fantastic educator, team member and public speaker. Throughout her diverse projects, she consistently brings her dynamic energy which is a mixture of professional expertise and engaging personal interaction. She has reliably been there for me whenever I needed it and we have consulted with each other on many occasions. I could not recommend her highly enough in whatever endeavor she seeks to pursue.
