Most recently, she spent 3.5 years with Education Commission of the States working on K-12 accountability and student health and wellness, among other P-20 education policy topics. Prior to joining Education Commission of the States, she spent six years at the National Conference of State Legislatures, focusing on human services policy, and earlier, at the Colorado General Assembly as a legislative aide.
