Kaleigh Cunningham is PERC’s coalitions coordinator, strengthening relationships between our team and other free-market policy champions. Kaleigh has a long-standing career of grassroots engagement, event planning, and nonprofit startup strategy and management.

Kaleigh is a long-time advocate of PERC’s ideas, completing her Political Science and Environmental Geography degree from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania with an independent study of free-market environmentalism for her senior thesis. Upon graduating in 2017, she moved to Montana to intern at PERC on our development team. Since then, she has promoted our ideas as a speaker on conference main stages, and within her own community as the former president of Missoula’s American Conservation Coalition chapter.
