Christine Kelly

Communications Director

Christine coordinates communications at Chelsea’s Hope and is dedicated to family support. She earned a B.A. in International Relations and Plan II Honors from UT Austin, but entered the patient advocacy space after graduating. Her own experience with a rare disease inspired her to join the organization to raise awareness of Lafora as a Marketing Fellow.

Christine also assists with social media to improve support for the GLUT1 Deficiency patient community. She lives with her husband in South Carolina. Outside of work, she enjoys reading, writing, spending time with loved ones, traveling and baking.
