As Public Affairs Manager, Cheyenne supports Northwest Health Foundation’s advocacy campaigns to change public policy, often in partnership and at the direction of community-based organizations. She also manages government relations and leads NWHF’s communications, among other responsibilities.
Before joining NWHF, Cheyenne was the Director of Policy and Advocacy at Verde. She oversaw the policy development and community engagement for water, energy, air quality, and transportation. She played an instrumental role in Oregon Water Futures and the development of the Water Policy Action Framework, a collaboration between water and environmental justice interests, Indigenous peoples, communities of color, low-income communities, and academic institutions. Cheyenne currently sits as the Vice-Chair of the Oregon Environmental Restoration Council and she previously served on the Oregon Racial Justice Council’s Environmental Equity Committee, and as a member of the Oregon Sustainability Board.
Outside of work, Cheyenne is usually training for a Hyrox competition, spending time with her family on the horse farm, or working on a craft. She loves animals and will always want to see a picture of your pet!
