Meet our Director, Kelsey McSheffrey O’Connell

A longtime visitor of the valley, Kelsey McSheffrey O’Connell settled in North Conway in August 2023 to assist with her family’s business while maintaining her role working in marketing and business development for a global law firm. With an MBA and 10 years in the field, Kelsey brings a strong background in marketing to RMAA, with a goal to help build awareness and expand fundraising efforts on behalf of the clinic. Her love for animals was sparked by her golden retriever Aspen who succumbed to his battle with osteosarcoma in 2022. She is joining the board of directors in his honor and to support RMAA’s mission of having no more homeless animals.

While her partner runs the business, Kelsey spends her off days fixing up their 1880s farmhouse under the supervision of her Maine Coon cat Kenny and exploring the White Mountains with her Aruban rescue dog, Shannon (named after Jackson’s Shannon Door Pub).
