She first came to recognition as the bad seed teen Lolita “Kimberly Harris” in the ABC Daytime drama RYAN's HOPE, winning the plum role only two weeks after arriving in NYC to attend classes at The National Shakespeare Company Conservatory. She soon found herself acting opposite the likes of Joan Fontaine and Christopher Reeve as they made guest appearances on the show. She went on to take over the role of sex-kitten manipulator “Tina Lord” on ABC's ONE LIFE to LIVE. Kelli also gained notice for her portrayal of the exasperated cheerleader “Cindy Carr/Spirit Bunny” in FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH, a film that for many came to simply personify the 80s.

Kelli has said that her most fulfilling role to date is the schizophrenic femme fatale “Merrie/Meredith” in Showtime's noir thriller FACE DOWN (written and directed by NIGHT OF THE COMET's Thom Eberhardt), playing opposite Joe Mantegna, J.K.
