Kennedy first joined the Commonwealth Foundation in 2019 as a Government Affairs Intern. Following her internship, she transitioned into a contracted position before beginning her current role as a Government Affairs Associate. 

 

She holds a bachelor's degree in political science with a minor in national security and intelligence from Fairmont State University, and prior to CF, also spent some time working in a municipal court as a bailiff.

 

Kennedy currently lives in Stillwater, Oklahoma with her fiancé and their stubborn, 90-pound Great Pyrenees, Rudy. If she's not baking or spending time outdoors, she's probably out on a dedicated hunt to find the best chicken and waffles.
