Kelsey Smith is an actress, child psychologist, and one of Mase's closest childhood friends. Kelsey (she/her) visited QueerTowne to chat about her childhood in Austin with Mase, coming out as bi several years into her current relationship, and what she learned about herself in 2020. Javi and Kelsey discuss the difficulties of providing mental health services to students throughout the pandemic and how continued the intensity of this moment is impacting their work. Kelsey opens up about her husband's recent health crisis, the unexpected friendship that's formed from that experience, and why she's proud to be queer in a seemingly heteronormative relationship. Mase and Kelsey talk about the innate goofiness of performing unlicensed shows as kids and why Mase felt more grown up for cussing on stage.
