She was thrilled and honored to take over the Director's position for Music Together Of Staten Island back in Spring of 2018 !!. Kelly started as a mother in the program but soon realized she felt a deep connection to the class and to her teacher Janet, and she just knew this was something she needed to be a part of. Kelly has now been teaching in our community for over 15 years and absolutely loves that this is what is considered her "job". Kelly studied Early Childhood Education in college and worked as a children's photographer for 10 years prior to attending MT with her two sons. She is happy she is able to juggle her "Dance Life" schedule along with her many other hats as a mom and her boy's activities to always bring her best to all her classes.
