Meet Kelsey

Hi! I'm Kelsey, I am a PhD student in Anthropology at the University of Colorado Boulder. My research explores the intersections of medical and environmental anthropology by examining violence against women’s bodies and territories in post-genocide Guatemala. Before beginning my PhD, I served in the Peace Corps and worked in research at the Brown School of Public Health. Being part of the Fearless Grad program was an incredible experience, offering me a supportive community of people doing big things in their fields. I am excited to help aspiring PhD students as they refine their research interests and confidently navigate the application process. In my free time I enjoy running, hiking, and exploring new areas around Colorado! I am a stereotypically curious and adventurous Sagittarius, I love traveling and meeting new people.
