About Kelsey

Kelsey Tainsh, CSP has been through more in her 34 years than most will endure in a lifetime. Successfully overcoming a brain tumor at only 5 years of age, Kelsey went on to be a happy, healthy kid and a champion athlete. 10 years later, at 15, it all came crashing down when the tumor returned followed by a crippling stroke. Her friends had disappeared, her right side didn’t function and she became paralyzed with fear and self doubt. Despite her significant physical challenges, she worked hard to pull herself up and charged back into life graduating magna cum laude from the University of Florida and going on to work for one of the most recognized companies in the world – The Coca-Cola Company.
Today, this remarkable young woman has become a champion for the rest of us. An acclaimed professional speaker and para snowboarder, Kelsey travels the world speaking to organizations and corporations about the power of persistence and perspective.
