Kayla joined Healthy Alliance because she believes every individual deserves access to whole-person health care and wants to bring a greater awareness to the social drivers of health. She believes awareness is what sparks change for the better in our communities. Kayla graduated from SUNY Plattsburgh with a bachelor’s in public relations and journalism, where she found her passion for helping others through her work. She previously worked in the education industry doing school PR for local K-12 public school districts. In her spare time, Kayla enjoys exploring local food and beverage businesses throughout the Capital Region (especially coffee shops), attending live concerts for some of her favorite bands, weightlifting, watching UFC, and spending time with her husband and their cats, Ozzy and Lazlo.
