About Michaela Kelso

I want to be a better Representative For You!

Introduction

Early life and background

Michaela Kelso grew up in Germany and immigrated to the US in 1993 as the spouse of a US Soldier. Growing up she was surrounded by people who fought for the environment and against war mongering. The nuclear meltdown in Chernobyl brought home the futility of thinking "What I do only effects Me". We are living in an interconnected world! Now, more than ever, we all have a shared responsibility to preserve and protect this world for our children.

A life of patriotic service

Michaela Kelso joined the United States Army in 1995 and (together with her husband) retired from Active Duty in 2018. During her service she deployed to Bosnia Herzegovina, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and was stationed in Germany, Hawaii, California, and Texas. She honors her oath to the Constitution to this day!

There's no place like Home

After Michaela Kelso and her husband retired from Active Duty in 2018, they settled their family in Chattaroy, WA, an area they chose after coming here on a vacation between schools and deployments. These days they spend their time enjoying the outdoors with their dogs, gathering eggs from their chickens, working the garden, listening to music, serving their feline overlords, and defending Democracy.
