Kelli has had one of the greatest impacts on my development as a leader. Her mentorship and coaching has been both personal and professional—helping me grow in confidence, skill, and vision. What sets Kelli apart is her rare combination of executive coaching, vision-building, and relentless belief in people.
She doesn’t just talk about leadership—she creates leaders. Everything she touches is marked by excellence, innovation, and a deep commitment to doing what is best for kids.

Working with Kelli Marshall has been such a transformative experience. She is not only an incredible leader but also a true thought partner. From the very beginning, she has guided me from the starting point to full execution helping turn ideas into meaningful action. Her strategic insight, encouragement, and ability to bring clarity to big visions have been instrumental in helping us make the impact we want with Latina youth. Kelli’s leadership inspires confidence and collaboration, and I’m deeply grateful for the way she continues to empower and support our mission.

Amor Movement
I have SO much respect for her. She has taught me a ton over the years and has been such a fabulous mentor. She is tough, no-nonsense, but her high expectations for ALL is what makes her superior to others. Our educational system would be in a much better place if people cared about kids as much as she does.
