Kelsey Eckler started at Empower Learn Create at NKU in June of 2022. She has worked in Early Childhood Education for four years, three years spent in various classrooms working with children ages six weeks to twelve years and one year in a kindergarten preparation home visitation program. Kelsey is currently working towards obtaining her Child Development Associate (CDA), and is very eager to further her education and become a better educator. Kelsey’s first memories were inside of a preschool classroom, so she strives to be an excellent teacher who leaves a positive impact in the lives of each student.

Kelsey’s favorite place to be is cuddled up on the couch with her fiance, two children, and pets. She also enjoys traveling to new cities, trying new foods at local restaurants, seeing the newest movies, and appreciating animal life at the Newport Aquarium and Cincinnati Zoo.
