kelli . 28 years old / denver . colorado
spring/summer seems to have finally arrived in denver. the sun for which this city is so famous has been out in full force and everything is green and blooming and people seem to be a bit happier because of it. or maybe it is just me that is happier. i suppose that is enough to change my perspective, though, and then it doesn't really matter if everyone else is happier or not. i walked around in the lovely weather with my friend's dog, searching for strangers and stopping to smell every single thing we passed in the process. after a long time of walking and searching and smelling and peeing, i decided that i would drop bayou (the dog) off at my apartment and then continue my search.
it wasn't too long after heading out on my own that i asked an older man if he would be the day's stranger. he told me wasn't interested in being on anybody's website. he was nice about it, though, and thanked me for asking him. a few blocks later, i spotted a woman sitting on the front steps of an apartment building. i passed by and then stopped short, turned around, and told her what i was up to. i asked if she minded that i come over to her (she was on the other side of a fence). she received me warmly and we started chatting.
kelli is originally from detroit. she went to college in central michigan and then started on an acting course that brought her all over the place. she eventually settled in denver, where she attended the national theatre conservatory. she just finished the three year program there and received her master's degree in fine art. when i met her, she had just returned home from a musical rehearsal. she said she was part of one of three five-minute performances that will soon be put on for little children.
kelli will be spending one final summer here in denver, teaching theatre to young kids, and then she plans on moving to new york city in the fall. she was very excited to be a part of an actor's union and was hopeful that she will be able to find decent paying work in the city. she had a beautiful smile and very bright, warm eyes. she spoke very confidently and exuded a positivity that one rarely comes across. i concluded from our short interaction that she wouldn't have too much trouble finding work. i hope i am right.
thank you so much for your time today, kelli.
