A year before graduation, Kelly joined the “Big 4 Firm,” Deloitte as a tax intern and started working for the firm as a tax consultant in 2021.

She pursued her passion for golf in Austin and was part of the UT Women’s Golf team. Kelly played for three seasons in Texas, competing in five events.

Due to her academic commitments, it looks like she might not have had the chance to pursue golf more seriously than she did in high school.

Nevertheless, Kelly got the chance to represent the famous colors of the Texas Longhorns.

One of her best performances came in her senior year at the White Sands Invitational, in which she finished in 72nd position with a three-round total of 229.

Moreover, Kelly was named to the Big 12 Academic Honor Roll list and was an active member of the honors business association. 

Doug And Kelly Relationship Timeline 

Doug Ghim and his girlfriend, Kelly Xac, aren’t the most active social media users. And because of that reason, they only have given a slight peek at their relationship. 

Though Doug might have shared the first post about his relationship with Kelly in 2022, they had already begun dating in September 2021.
