Kitty supports the work of the Data and Policy team to make data-informed decisions about Vermont’s Early Childhood System. She first became involved with community engagement and nonprofit work as a project lead for the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps. Following this role, she worked as a research assistant for The Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development Study, which supported data collection for a nationwide data set on brain development and child health. In her role as a research assistant, she was able to coordinate with a nationwide consortium that included a Center for Data Analysis and Informatics and Resource Center.
She enjoys understanding the many moving parts that can help children and families thrive and access the resources they need. In her free time, Kitty loves being on the water swimming or sailing, learning new visual arts mediums, and making good food with friends and family.
