Kelsey Deanne was born in Fort Worth, TX and moved around during her childhood to Houston, South Dakota, and the Bay Area, CA. She always wanted to do and experience everything (in a healthy way, not drugs) including piano, ballet, chearleading, band (five instruments), competitive road cycling, scuba diving, surfing, and competitive running, just to name a few. Since she couldn't figure out what she wanted to do with her life, and high school wasn't providing any answers, she graduated from Burlingame High School one year early to attend Lawrence University's Conservatory of Music in Appleton, WI on a piano performance scholarship. After one semester of practicing in a basement studio for 6 hours a day, she switched majors to anthropology where she had more human contact. She joined the Cross-Country and Track teams and earned a B.A. in three years. Kelsey continued her education to complete a M.A. in applied anthropology from University of North Texas in 1.5 years and another M.A. in anthropology from The New School (NYC). It was while studying in NYC that she realized academia wasn't for her. Through the prompting of a friend, Kelsey went to a hair model casting and booked the job. It gave her the confidence she needed to land a commercial/print agent, Rick Miller, who encouraged her to take on-camera commercial classes. She fell in love with acting and has been breathing it ever since with the help of her mentor, Harry O'Reilly. Kelsey's resume includes Discovery ID and SyFy TV shows, many independent films, and the writer/director/musician for the short film "My Neighbor". Kelsey also co-owns De/Anne with Anne Cates, specializing in narrative films and documentaries. She also co-owns KFM Productions, which focuses on innovative narrative-based commercials and online media content. Free time includes sipping whiskey and IPA, aimlessly walking around Dallas, running, live music, playing the piano and singing opera. - IMDb Mini Biography By: Anonymous
