Love assumed leadership at Cook Children’s in 2018, capping a trajectory that included pivotal roles at the Harris County Healthcare Alliance and Community Health Choice. Beyond her executive duties, she was a primary architect of the Texas Association of Community Health Plans (TACHP), an organization created to amplify the voices of local health providers within the state government.

TACHP leadership credited Love’s foundational work for the organization’s current influence. Craig Smith, Chair of TACHP, noted that the association would not exist without her early guidance. Her transition, effective this week, concludes a career defined by bridging the gap between clinical operations and public policy, ensuring that North Texas families maintained consistent access to essential health resources.
