A Career Dedicated to the Power of Mythology
As the owner of HoneyBee TreeHouse LLC, Dr. Kelly has made it her mission to explore the power of stories in shaping human experiences.

Dr. Kelly's dissertation, "Myth Making and Modern Medicine: A Case of Kidney Transplantation," remains one of her most profound contributions. The research she conducted focused on kidney transplant patients who faced potentially life-ending surgery. The study revealed that patients often found a renewed purpose in giving back to society.

Beyond academia, Dr. Kelly has left an indelible mark on the arts. As a cultural and arts activist, she has been a leading advocate for the importance of creative expression in society. As an executive producer, she has been responsible for impactful documentary films, including "A New Leash on Life: The K9s for Warriors Story" and "Larry King: A Life Celebrated."
Literature is another field in which Dr. Kelly wields influence. As a gifted author, she has multiple Amazon bestsellers under her name. Most recently, she wrote "Athena, Tudor and the Eagle" in 2023 and "Athena the Brave" in 2022.
