Kelley spent much of her early life moving around the country, describing herself as an "Air Force brat."〔 Her family lived for a few years in Turkey as well.〔 She graduated from Russellville High School, where she was a member of the cheerleader squad. Following her graduation from high school, Kelley attended Rhodes College, where she focused on the fields of communication and English. In 1988, Kelley met Rand Paul, then known as Randy, at a backyard oyster roast in Atlanta.〔 Randy Paul was completing a surgical rotation at Georgia Baptist Hospital while working on his medical degree at the Duke University School of Medicine.〔 At first Kelley thought that Randy was a teenager, and unaware that he was actually a 26-year-old doctor.〔 They began dating while Paul completed his rotation program, and Randy asked Kelley to move back with him to North Carolina and try to find a job in the Durham area so that they could continue being together. On October 20, 1990, the couple married, and eventually moved to Kentucky in 1993 when an ophthalmologist position opened up in the small town of Bowling Green.〔 Kelley would go on to help her husband with producing newsletters and mailings for his practice, running the payroll, keeping the books, and managing a remodel of the building where he saw patients.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kelley Paul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
