Kelley McLandress is a graduate student in print journalism who moved to Missoula after 10 years in Bozeman. She graduated from Montana State University in 1999 with degrees in anthropology and French. After a three-month fly-fishing trip to New Zealand, she decided to become certified in secondary education. She later returned to New Zealand and taught school on the south island. Now she is pursuing a master’s degree in print journalism at the University of Montana with hopes of writing and teaching—and perhaps returning to visit her Kiwi friends in New Zealand. While she’s in Missoula, Kelley enjoys running the trails in Rattlesnake, floating the Blackfoot River with her husband, Todd, and cross-country skiing with her friends in the UM grad program. Kelley also enjoys visiting family members who live in Idaho, Washington and Oregon.
