Early Years

Prior to government service, Alley was an Assistant Professor in the Gerontology Division of the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the University of Maryland School of Medicine[2] where she conducted research on the link between poverty and c-reactive protein,[10] the correlations between mortgage delinquency and health outcomes in older Americans,[11][12] and obesity and Medicare costs.[13]

Office of the Surgeon General

[edit]

Alley began her public service career as a Health and Aging Policy Fellow in the Office of the Surgeon General.[2] She went on to serve as Senior Advisor to the Surgeon General[14] where she oversaw implementation of the National Prevention Strategy[15] and published on leveraging multiple sectors to improve population health as part of the strategy.[16]

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

From 2019 to 2020, Alley served as Deputy Senior Advisor to the Secretary for Value-based Transformation[26] where she led department-wide work to advance social determinants of health, rural health, and maternal health.[27]
