He was initially hired as the city’s cable coordinator and was responsible for the operations of the city’s government access channel along with audio/video support for city departments. Kelley was named interim manager of the Media & Community Relations Department in October 2011 and became manager of the Media & Community Relations Department on May 1, 2013. The position was later reclassified as assistant director of Media & Community Relations.
Kelley has served as the city’s deputy FOIA officer since October 2011.
Kelley received his Bachelor of Arts in journalism from Louisiana State University with a major in broadcast journalism and a minor in history.
