She is passionate about the people and land of Southern Appalachia, and is currently working as a butcher at Hickory Nut Gap while also getting her Masters of Divinity at Duke University. It is her ultimate hope to bi-vocationally serve rural areas as both a whole animal butcher and a pastor. Kelly’s favorite cut of meat is the bavette steak, and she believes that one of life’s simple pleasures is pulling the flat iron steak clean off the bone of a beef forequarter.
