Straight out of college, Mary Kathryn Covert worked her way up from intern to a full-time position in the Coca-Cola Company’s Issues Management division. Covert moved to Financial Dynamics’ healthcare and life sciences team in the public affairs division in March 2009, where she quickly became an expert on the issues, clients and reporters during the debate over healthcare reform.
