Our newest team member is in our Washington, DC office at the Hall of States.  Yejin Cooke started July 15th as Director of Government Affairs. Her background, skills and experience are ideal for representing our association and advocating NASCIO's positions.  She's formerly an Associate Legislative Director at the National Association of Counties (NACo) where she managed a broad portfolio of issues related to telecommunications, broadband, FirstNet, cybersecurity, public safety, emergency management and homeland security.  NACo is a longtime strategic partner of ours and Yejin served as the liaison between NACo and NASCIO and as part of our coalitions on common issues, so she's familiar with the technology policy areas on NASCIO’s advocacy agenda. Yejin earned her B.A. from Johns Hopkins University and her J.D. from the Villanova University School of Law.
