She oversees and manages the conservation aspects of EverGreene projects involving architectural elements, masonry, public art, monuments, and artifacts – often working collaboratively with architects, engineers, construction managers and fellow conservation professionals. Besides her skills in research, assessment, surveying, scope definition, project management  and consulting, she has significant hands-on experience with an extremely wide variety of conservation processes and treatments.

Kelly received dual BA’s from University of North Carolina Greensboro in Archaeology and Anthropology.

Upon completion of her graduate training, Kelly continued expanding her skills in conservation fieldwork and historic preservation, where she focused on masonry, sculpture, and mosaics and she completed several certifications for the use of lasers in conservation. She is an active member of several industry organizations, including the American Institute of Conservation (AIC); Archaeological Institute of America (AIA); the Canadian Association of Conservation (CAC/ACCR); and an accredited member of the Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals (CAHP/ACECP.)
