2013 is officially underway. The Blue Cell, LLC would like
to start the first issue of our 3rd volume of The Blue Cell Intel Summary
by welcoming Ashley Cox to our staff. Ashley is a graduate of the University of
Idaho, where she received a Bachelor of Arts and Science in Crime and Justice
Studies. She also holds a Certificate in Homeland Defense from The University
of Colorado at Colorado Springs and a Master degree in Public Administration
from the University of Colorado at Denver, School of Public Affairs. In addition to her strong educational
background, Ashley has previous work experience at the federal , state, and
county levels in both the criminal justice and emergency management fields. On
a personal note, she was an accomplished soccer player at the collegiate level,
Division I.
Ashley will be assigned to The Blue Cells Contract and
Acquisitions element focusing on client contracting in support of our Texas
based Consulting Services. In addition to client contracting, like all Blue
Cell personnel, Ashley will be supporting efforts in the Blue Cell’s training,
exercise and deployment services activities.
We are particularly excited about Ashley coming on board and
the specific expansion of our contractual relationship with the University of
Nebraska’s public policy center. Signed in July of 2012, the purpose of the
collaboration with UNL is to deliver effective planning and consulting service
that combines the real world planning experience of The Blue Cell with the
appropriate academic and intellectual foundation in policy to institutions,
agencies and governments across the United States.
All too often in this newly emerging vocation that we call
Emergency Management, the adherence to the rule of law or policy is ignored or
not fully comprehended due to a variety of motivations or simple
ignorance. There are countless examples
from major incidents in the past decade that illustrate this. The goal of this
effort is to assist jurisdictions in the preparedness phase (consulting and
planning) to be more effectively and efficient in the response phase.
Ashley will be working out of the Denver metro area and can
be reached via email: ashleycox@thebluecell.com
or by phone 1-800-866-0840 extension 3
