From Ballet To Fourth-Degree Black Belt
- Kiley started taekwondo at age four and progressed steadily through belts to a fourth-degree master black belt.
- She earned her higher degrees by continuous training, testing, and sending credentials for international approval.

- Taekwondo taught Kiley two core principles: perseverance and attitude, which she says shape behavior on and off the mat.
- Those principles create daily accountability and a year-round work ethic that transfers to other pursuits.
