As Chief Marketing Officer at [STEAMe](https://steame.com/), she oversees the company's brand, marketing, and communications, helping communicate the outcomes and impact of workforce development initiatives. Before joining STEAMe, Kelly served as VP of Marketing at [OneCause](https://www.onecause.com/), where she led content and marketing strategy for one of the nation's leading fundraising technology companies. Her work helping nonprofits engage supporters, communicate impact, and advance their missions shaped her belief that technology can be a powerful force for expanding opportunity and improving lives. Kelly also spent time at NowPow, working alongside STEAMe's founders at one of the nation's most recognized social care referral platforms. There, she saw firsthand how technology can strengthen connections between organizations, people, and communities - so everyone can thrive.. Across the nonprofit, healthcare, and workforce sectors, she believes the best technology helps people and organizations achieve greater impact. She holds a BA from Saint Mary's College of California. WHY STEAMe? ## All Aboard the Workforce Mission "The NowPow team proved that you can build technology that works at scale and stays grounded in real community impact. That combination is rare. Bringing that same rigor to workforce development — helping people land jobs, build careers, and access real economic mobility — felt like the most meaningful thing I could do next. I'm proud to be part of this team." ### Articles by Kelly Velasquez-Hague ![Single Sector Talent Pipeline](https://steame.com/hubfs/ChatGPT%20Image%20Jul%2014%2c%202026%2c%2010_04_22%20AM-1.png) ### Talent Pipelines How to Build a Single Sector Talent Pipeline [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/how-to-build-a-single-sector-talent-pipeline) ![Rural Health Transformation Blog Thumbnail](https://steame.com/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-12-02%20at%202.53.43%20PM-1.png) ### Rural Health Transformation What Actually Works for Building Healthcare Talent Pipelines [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/rural-health-transformation-what-actually-works-for-building-healthcare-talent-pipelines) ![CMS and Rural Health Blog Thumbnail](https://steame.com/hs-fs/hubfs/illo-article-8.png?width=2000&name=illo-article-8.png) ### CMS Rural Health Workforce What CMS is Asking States to Prove in RHT Workforce Initiatives [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/what-cms-is-asking-states-to-prove-in-rural-health-transformation-programs) ![STEAMe solutions blog thumbnail](https://steame.com/hs-fs/hubfs/illo-article-7.png?width=2000&name=illo-article-7.png) ### STEAMe Workforce Soltions Top 5 Workforce Development solutions STEAMe Delivers—Fast [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/top-5-workforce-development-solutions-steame-delivers-fast) ![Workforce Trends Blog Thumbnail](https://steame.com/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-12-02%20at%202.50.13%20PM.png) ### Workforce Strategies 5 Trends Driving Successful Workforce Development Strategies [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/5-trends-driving-successful-workforce-development-strategies) ![Workforce Development Myths](https://steame.com/hs-fs/hubfs/illo-article-6.png?width=2000&height=1000&name=illo-article-6.png) ### Workforce Development Myths Busting 7 of the Most Common Workforce Development Software & Program Myths [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/busting-7-of-the-most-common-workforce-development-software-program-myths) ![STEAMe co-founder blog](https://steame.com/hs-fs/hubfs/illo-article-5.png?width=2000&height=1000&name=illo-article-5.png) ### Dr. Pinkard's Appointment STEAMe Co-founder & CSO Appointed to the National Academy of Education [Read More](https://steame.com/resources/steame-co-founder-cso-appointed-to-the-national-academy-of-education) Our Team STEAMe is a Chicago-based, women-owned-and-led technology company united by a shared vision for community prosperity.
