Jonathan "Joc" Clark PhD

Kelly is an exceptional leader. She has been a Teaching Assistant in my backpacking class for 3 years, leading many class expeditions. She is technically competent and relationally astute. With her outgoing and compassionate demeanor she quickly forms strong bonds with students and gains their respect and confidence. I have the utmost confidence in her abilities and give her my highest endorsement.
