Profile View Kaelyn ’s Student-Athlete profile on Go Duke

While participating in ACE is partially about me taking a moment to give back through sport, I believe this experience will have an even greater impact on me. I’m excited to build new cross-cultural connections and have an impact on a community different from my own. I’m also excited to have fun and build lasting friendships.

Kaelyn’s past volunteer experience includes working with the Durham community at Student U, where she tutors and builds connections with local public school students. Kaelyn has also participated in Swimming with the Blue Devils, the swim team’s initiative to provide free swim lessons on water safety to the local community.
