With February being heart month we will dive into women and the often overlooked symptoms of a heart attack.
  

Kelley Graham was raised in Central Florida.  After graduating with a degree in Classical Voice from UCF, she moved to NYC. There she played original music in many live venues and eventually became a pop star in Europe with her band “Circ."  She was living her dream and traveled all over the world enjoying many number one songs in Germany.  She also wrote club songs for: Armin Van Buuren, Markus Schulz and ATB (just to name a few). Her next dream was to become a mother.


After her daughter Violet was born, she moved back to Winter Park and continued her studies to become a K-12 music teacher. She met her husband David Graham in 2016.  The two were married in 2020.  She is currently The Fine Arts Director at Altamonte Christian School. 


In 2019, Kelley woke up feeling very strange.  She dropped her daughter off at school and then drove herself to GuideWell in Winter Park.  There, she was told she was having a heart attack and was taken into immediate surgery to save her life.  Since that day, Kelley has become a passionate advocate for women’s heart health.  She credits a Facebook post about a female heart attack, posted by a female friend, with saving her life. 

 

In 2023, she and her husband held Fete Minuet: an 18th Century Ball in Winter Park.  The Ball benefited the American Heart Association and Kelley has since been named as a “Woman of Impact” nominee by The American Heart Association.


Hannah Mackenzie, Anchor and reporter with Fox 35 Orlando is no stranger to heart disease. Join us as Kelley, Hannah and Dr. Toralben Patel, with AdventHealth discuss women, heart disease and the unique signs to watch for.
