Kelleia has carved out a career telling quick-silvered stories of people on the verge of either a break down or a break through.

From portraying the savvy Burlesque Star, Tempest Storm, in Gangster Squad to camping-it-up as a 16-year-old camp counselor in Wet Hot American Summer - First Day of Camp; from "wishing and hoping" in the iconic opening sequence of my best friend's wedding to originating the role of Billie "Veruka" Wynette in Urban Cowboy, the musical which garnered her “Best Mullet on Broadway” to choreographing on a myriad of shows, plays & musicals, Kelleia has an inherent understanding of story, a respect for the unpredictable, the 10,000+ hours of a professional and the ability to solve anything.
Kelleia is an environmental advocate, involved with BareFoot College (in conjunction with Participant Media), a village-based organization empowering women to become solar engineers and is the creator of the hippest hip-bag in the the universe, the kelleiaLunaBAG made from HEMP & recycled bamboo.
