I joined the staff at Kentucky Youth Advocates in 2002 and served in many roles at the organization. I excelled in arranging complex situations with many moving parts into cohesive statewide system changes to benefit children in Kentucky. Recent successes include leading a planning effort to improve oral health outcomes by developing a statewide oral health literacy campaign. I directed the Kentucky Oral Health Coalition. I am adept at designing, initiating and sustaining a variety of projects and programs in several portfolio arenas, including health, early childhood, and child welfare.I established critical linkages and fostered collaboration between diverse leaders at the local, state and national levels around influencing key decisions on behalf of children and families. I lead successful short and long term strategic planning efforts including various parts of the Blueprint for Kentucky’s Children. I provided leadership in the in the passage of several state level policy changes including allowing more time for children aging out of foster care to go to college, passage of the kindergarten entry dental screening bill, the inclusion of BMI collection on the school physical form, the removal of the face to face interview for children’s health insurance, and the passage of booster seat legislation in Kentucky. I also lead efforts to convene and train advocates and volunteers in sharing their point of view with decision makers. I was the the founding leader of the decade old Children’s Advocacy at the Capitol campaign as well as the designer and facilitator of a Child Advocacy Fellowship project. I collaborated with national foundations and organizations to bring critical advocacy funding into the state to make Kentucky the best place in America to be young including the Annie E Casey Foundation, the DentaQuest Foundation, Save the Children, the Ford Foundation, the Packard Foundation, and the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
