“Develop enough courage so that you can stand up for yourself and then stand up for somebody else.”
Maya Angelou
While in the past she has held such titles as Communications Consultant, Corporate Legal Associate, and even Pastry Chef, Simone’s passion for storytelling and her background in the law uniquely position her to act as the Communications Manager for the Child Care Law Center.
In her role, she uses empathy and a desire for knowledge mobilization to break down barriers between people and information. Her goal is to help anyone understand the legal and legislative process to better advocate for themselves and others. She also acts as the Trainings Manager and the Program Manager for the Leader in Advocacy Award; a grant program started by CCLC in 2024 to award child care providers who are leading the way in the advocacy space.
Simone received her J.D. from Washington University in St Louis and her B.A. in Communication Studies from University of Montana. In her free time you can find her hiking in the hills, baking treats for friends, or catching up on reality tv.
