Passionate about health and wellness, Kaitlyn is dedicated to advancing programs that help children and families build healthy habits that last a lifetime. She is especially committed to improving school meal programs so that every child has access to nutritious foods that help them feel their happiest, healthiest, and ready to learn.

Outside of work, Kaitlyn enjoys strength training, yoga, and spending time in nature. One of her favorite school lunch memories includes sitting with friends, sharing stories from the school day, and trying new foods together.
