About me

My name is Kelley. I am a marathon swimmer based in San Diego, CA. I started this blog to share my adventures in ocean swimming. My other passions include animals, music, and food. I am a mom to a bonded pair of house rabbits (Melissa and Cosmos), and a conure (Sunny). I absolutely love music and live shows (of note, my favorite band is Against Me! and generally anything by Laura Jane Grace). In fact, I sing my favorite songs to myself on long swims to keep my mind occupied. I am a Clinical Dietitian by day and an avid home-chef by night, and I have a huge sweet tooth (cake is life). I am also an advocate for mental health (having recovered from severe depression in the past), a feminist, and a progressive. I want to make a positive impact in the world through all of my pursuits.
