Some of her many accomplishments were mission trips to Romania, Puerto Rico, Kenya, Kosovo, Ecuador, Brazil, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi and Missouri.

Kiley served as a bilingual SLPA in the Dallas metro for about 1.5 years. Kiley had a huge love of communication in all forms and was very gifted in languages. She was fluent in Spanish, had a working knowledge of Portuguese, attended a language institute of Linguistics (Wycliffe GIAL), and during chemo treatments started studying Arabic with her cousin.

She was a lover of food, people and cultures. Kiley has always had a great love for spreading God's word to people around the world. In the midst of her battle with cancer when asked her desires on continued treatment, Kiley responded her desire was "to continue traveling the world telling more people about God". Kiley and her husband had envisioned working and living in Nepal before her diagnosis.
