Kelsie Coleman
Since 2011, Kelsie has built her legacy in youth development. She started at a young age, helping her mother with her daycare. She then began to help in the children's church. Her first job was at the Danville Family YMCA; the rest was history! Through her journey, she has mentored countless children, coached and trained them, while working her way up from a part-time seasonal worker to the director of the Boys and Girls Club in a new state. After doing that for a year, her path led her to direct recreation for one of the high schools in the school district. Kelsie is passionate about being active in the lives of youth, spreading love, wisdom, encouragement, and laughs to others.
Kelsie loves God, and her family means the world to her!
She aspires to travel the world, working for herself, being an encouragement, and spreading love to others with words of wisdom, poems, one-on-one talks, etc.
Kelsie Coleman is a 4x author. She loved, read, admired, studied, and wrote poetry since the 4th grade. English was always her favorite and strongest subject! Her poetry was always kept in journals to express herself and to free her mind. However, at the age of 24 she decided to share her gift, thoughts, and poems with the world. Her hometown is Danville, IL. Kelsie is willing to travel to perform poetry, to do motivational speaking, and to talk about her books.
She is also her publishers top selling client and has sold over 800 books. Kelsie believes that she is gifted with words and her purpose is to encourage and uplift people in various forms. She has participated in numerous open mics, assemblies, programs, workshops, think tanks, and has led writing groups for both youth and adults. Recently, Kelsie has started a nonprofit organization called "The Writer's Den" alongside her business partner. The two of them have started a scholarship in the high school they graduated from. She also recently obtained a grant writing certificate and started her own consulting company. In the near future, the goal is to allow these gifts to be a part of her freedom so that she can provide finances for herself and others.
