About Us

Here at Chandler Kelly Consulting (CKC) we aspire to invoke change for individuals, non-profits, and churches. We believe the greatest impact comes when one looks inwardly for solutions. With our almost fifteen years of combined experience in fields ranging from community development and non-profit management to church growth and career empowerment, we thrive off of seeing lives transformed in a positive manner by our services.

Our everyday lives include creating powerful change in our careers and communities. We often find ourselves dreaming about how things could be better through evaluation and development. We are excited you chose to join us on this journey of making every place a place of impact.

We have been happily married for almost four years. We currently reside in Metro-Memphis with our spoiled dog, Justice. We enjoy time with our families, exploring different cultures, and laughing nonstop.
