Kelli’s life and legacy are impossible to capture in mere words. She was a radiant force - brilliant, compassionate, and endlessly uplifting. She had an extraordinary gift for bringing people together, creating deep and lasting connections within her friendships, family, church, and education. To know Kelli was to experience pure warmth, boundless energy, and an unshakable sense of joy. There is nobody like her.
A dedicated scholar and driven professional, Kelli excelled in every endeavor she pursued. From her early academic years to completing her undergraduate degree at UCLA and working toward hfer MBA at NYU (while working full time at Google), she thrived while holding roles at prestigious organizations such as ABC, and NBC Universal.
During her time at UCLA, she deepened her faith and commitment to service, values instilled in her by her beloved grandmother and loving parents, who guided her spiritual journey. Kelli devoted herself to uplifting others, whether through mentoring underserved high school students, advocating for children in the foster care system with CASA, or supporting veterans in securing employment through Hire Heroes.
Kelli’s presence was more than just physical - she was a feeling, a light that never dimmed. She embodied happiness, optimism, and joy, a spirit reflected in the yellow heart emoji she so often used and the color yellow itself - radiating confidence, intelligence, and warmth.
Her impact stretched across hundreds of lives, her laughter echoing in the hearts of all who knew her. Though her time with us was far too short, her spirit lives on forever, urging us to carry forward her legacy of joy, kindness, living life to the fullest, and unwavering love.
Kelli lived a life for others, and was committed to giving back to others generously. We created the Kelli Tani Foundation to ensure her legacy and generosity lives on. Kelli cared deeply about A LOT, but some causes that were close to heart include:
1) Educational opportunities (especially for women & underrepresented groups)
2) Homelessness in large cities (especially involving children)
3) College students struggling with tuition & housing issues
4) Foster care & adoption
5) Helping veterans find jobs
6) Finding cures for life-threatening childhood diseases
We are committed to funding causes in these areas, and will continue to update the website (kellitani.com).
