Her prior work has explored corporate and employee activism, with a particular interest in the role of technology corporations and platforms for use in social movements. Kalie previously served as BKC's Senior Research Coordinator, working closely with Professor Jonathan Zittrain and his portfolio of projects, as well as assisted in teaching courses on digital technologies. Prior to joining BKC, she focused primarily on management research, inclusive community engagement, and project management for academic and nonprofit organizations, including Columbia Business School, Wharton School of Business, Temple University, Urban Affairs Coalition, and The Food Trust.

She served two terms as an AmeriCorps National Volunteer, and is actively involved in mentoring high school girls, and advocating for civic engagement and hunger alleviation. When she’s not at work, you can find her playing with her two cats Nick & Stevie, trying to make a dent in her ever-growing reading list (and always open to recommendations to make it longer), and competing in various running events and triathlons (just for fun).
