Bio

Kelly’s fantasy sports journey began in 2002, when she drafted Adam Dunn, accidentally discovered the joy of three-true-outcomes, and promptly won her very first league. Even with a geographically confusing set of allegiances (Cubs, Vikings, Timberwolves, and Oilers), Kelly has built a reputation for blending data analysis with a sharp eye for storytelling. Today, she works as the Content Manager at FantasyPros, where she turns stats into strategies and numbers into narratives that help fantasy managers win leagues and keep things fun along the way.
