Kelli Bell-Vestal

I received a B.A. from Olivet College and an M.A. from Indiana University and started my career as a speech/language pathologist at MD Anderson in Houston. My career path led me to The Head and Neck Cancer Network in Little Rock and eventual entrance into the doctorate program at Northwestern University. Next came Tulsa, Oklahoma which truly felt like home. I married and had a daughter, Ann who is now a veterinarian in Lafayette, CO. I then travelled to Ft Wayne, Indiana as Director of Rehabilitation for a private company and quickly realized this did not feel like home so I accepted a position at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield, Illinois which I absolutely loved and stayed as Director of Rehabilitation for the entire System until my retirement in 2008. I am now married and have homes in Chicago (currently for sale) and a Summer home on Canandaigua Lake and a Winter home in Ft Myers. I've been blessed with a great life and am grateful for friends and family.
