Kaelyn Kissack, Website Editor, Ad Manager

Hey there! My name is Kaelyn Kissack and I am a senior. This is my third year in the yearbook now and I am the ad manager and website editor this year! I love to do photography and design. I am interested in going into sports media and communications. My dream is to work for the Kansas City Chiefs.
