Chelsea is proud to serve as the Development Coordinator. As a military spouse, she’s personally connected to STEP’s mission. Before joining STEP, Chelsea danced professionally with several San Diego companies - including The Rosin Box Project, City Ballet of San Diego, and Golden State Ballet. Alongside her performance career, she coached at NXPT Fitness, bartended in Pacific Beach, and supported nonprofit operations, donor outreach, and community engagement - making her transition into development a natural fit.
