About

Primary Interests

Kelly’s academic interests are focused on conservation genetics, molecular ecology, as well as non-invasive wildlife monitoring, ecology and management. As a mentor, educator and researcher, she hopes to cultivate a classroom culture that enables all students to experience a sense of belonging in the life sciences. In her teaching, Kelly emphasizes an active-learning, team-based approach often facilitated by involvement in Course Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) for research projects at both local and national scales. In addition, she is actively learning how to develop and incorporate contemplative and service-learning pedagogies into her teaching.

Kelly is a faculty fellow in the 2021-2022 Community Engagement and Service Learning program.

Kelly serves as a faculty mentor for the Forsythe-Grange Mentoring program which provides scholarships and individual mentoring for first-generation college students, Pell-eligible, and/or underrepresented students.

Kelly serves as the Faculty Advisor for the UMass Student Chapter of The Wildlife Society (Email: umass [dot] wildlife [at] gmail [dot] com; Follow us on Instagram at @umasswildlife.)
