Her love for community became evident through her passionate and persistent work both professionally and in her personal life. Kaelin is dedicated to giving back to the community through public service with non-profit organizations. Her work with the Ronald McDonald House Charities, allows her to provide support, health resources, and a sense of stability for families and children who are receiving medical attention.
Kaelin obtained a Masters Degree in Public Health from Indiana State University and began her journey into the field of public health and social services. In previous roles, Kaelin worked for Chicago Commons Adult Day Service in the Englewood community and Catholic Charities of the Archdioceses located in Harvey Il. During her time spent with both organizations, Kaelin honed in on improving quality of life, implementing health initiatives, providing senior support services and advocating for seniors diagnosed with Dementia and Alzheimer’s. Her goal has always been to make a difference in the lives of others, while maintaining their dignity and respect.
