“I’m not constantly jumping out of helicopters or airplanes. I’m just your neighbor. I’m the girl next door.” This is how Kelli describes herself, especially when she encounters someone who doesn’t know what it’s like to be in the Navy Reserve.

“Even when I was on Active Duty, I didn’t do all that action stuff,” Kelli states. “I was involved with Public Affairs as a Mass Communication Specialist, so I covered and publicized all the people doing the action stuff. That’s one of the great things about the Navy — it let me discover what I was interested in and then gave me the opportunity to do it.”
