Chloe Lake, Communications Director of MELA, has nine years of experience working in public health communications, six of those focused on translating maternal and child health data into easy-to-understand findings and recommendations. She resides in Louisiana, and she would love to see a southern state become a model for childcare and early education in the United States. In an age of information-overload, Chloe understands how to cut through the noise to deliver powerful messages to the right people. She prioritizes strategic communications approaches that go beyond building awareness to change people’s minds, attitudes, and behaviors.
