“Because of what I’ve experienced in my life, I’ve learned that everyone, no matter their educational background or socioeconomic status, needs help at some point. Whether it’s a baby needing a heart transplant before the age of one, a scholarship for a reading disability, assistance with rent during a battle with breast cancer, support for an aging parent far away, or saving the adoring eyes of a dog, cat, or horse in danger of euthanasia, we all need help now and then,” says Shelly.

From her early days as a runway model in Minneapolis, Chicago, and LA, she seamlessly transitioned into the hospitality industry, excelling in marketing, public relations, catering, and conference services. Her mastery in live crowdfunding performances, and charity auctioneering, underscore her exceptional skills and experience.
