I worked with Mara for four years at AHIP and found her to be an insightful colleague. She was always prepared to offer thoughtful commentary on the issues we were facing, and was always helpful in providing feedback when asked. Mara has a wealth of experience and knowledge in both federal and state policymaking spheres, and it was a pleasure to interact with her. Mara was an integral part of our team, and made the work we accomplished better.
