Kristin Kelly co-anchors the "Channel 3 News at 6" and the "Channel 3 News at 11" with Darren Perron. She also serves as Series Producer for Channel 3 News. Kristin joined WCAX in 2005.
Before returning to Vermont, Kristin was a General Assignment reporter for New England Cable News (NECN) in Boston. Starting in 2002, Kristin covered major stories in the Boston market - from the clergy sex abuse scandal and the Democratic National Convention - to the Red Sox historic World Series run.
From 1996 to 2002, Kristin held several positions at Channel 3 News: Morning Anchor, Business Reporter and Statehouse Reporter.
Kristin is proud to be part of the team (with Reporter Kristin Carlson and Photographer Joe Carroll) to win a 2010 DuPont-Columbia award for the news series Foreigners on the Farm. It revealed how Vermont's iconic dairy industry relies on illegal Mexican labor to keep going.
Kristin's reporting has won AP awards for enterprise and investigative stories. Kristin also won a regional Edward R. Murrow Award for a series of reports on female heroin addicts in Vermont's prisons.
When she's not at the TV station, Kristin can be found at Champlain College teaching a media writing class – or in the kitchen, cooking with family and friends.
Kristin received her BA degree from Barnard College and a MA in Journalism from New York University.
