Kelli Karanovich is a loving mother and wife who lives in Northwest Georgia and enjoys traveling the world. Her interests include spiritual living, natural parenting, progressive education, artistic exploration, nature and humanity. Professionally, she's an educator, writer and consultant. Additional certifications include that of Reiki practitioner and ordained minister of spiritual living. Unofficially, Kelli considers herself a budding aromatherapist, herbalist and life-long, low-key activista. In addition to her formal work with Personalized Education Group, Kelli has previously served the Bartow County Public School System from 2007-2009 and actively launched her websites www.MamaKelli.com and www.TrustingUniverse.com in 2010. In the future, she foresees herself embracing her role as an entreprenuer and starting a series of unique non-profit organizations both independently and in collaboration with her husband C.R. She also hopes the success of her novel Bearing Witness will lead her on a wonderful journey slightly deeper into the "public eye" and help finance the creation of a true family homestead complete with a stream, rolling hills of lavender flowers and a general store/art gallery where her husband and children can display their creative wares. A 2001 high school graduate of Darlington School, Kelli obtained a BA in magazine journalism from The University of Georgia in 2004 and a teaching certificate from Shorter College on her wedding day in 2007! Kelli's future educational goals include obtaining an MA in Ecopsychology from Naropa University and a Phd. in Transformative Studies from the California Institute of Integral Studies. However, in the words of late, great comedian and social commentator George Carlin, she is content to "always do whatever's next." Write to her at kelli@mamakelli.com. |
