Kelsey Halford is a Charlotte native who attended Northwest School of the Arts for middle and high school studying theatre, music, and costume design. After graduating high school, she attended Appalachian State University, graduating with honors with a BS degree in Communications, with an emphasis in Public Relations and a minor in Sociology.

With her degree in hand, Kelsey decided to take some time off to travel, live, and volunteer in Peru. After a three month stint in South America, she returned to Charlotte to start her career. She is now working for Diamonds Direct’s marketing department, concentrating on advertising, marketing, and event planning for their three locations in Charlotte, Raleigh and Birmingham.

With Kelsey’s educational and professional background she has been able to serve as a tremendous asset to the KFF team. Kelsey wears many hats for the KFF as a non-stop volunteer, secretary, and most notably a very driven event coordinator.
