Kleed joined MDF in 2018 as Program Associate to assist the Program and Development Directors with Patient Support and Education as well as various aspects of program research and content development, communications and fundraising. MDF’s holistic approach to the issue of an uncured disease attracted Kleed to MDF, due to his desire to find meaningful work at an ethical and fast moving organization. In 2020 he became MDF’s Communications & Technology Manager and then the Director of Communications & Technology in 2023. Prior to joining MDF, Kleed interned at the Investment Center of the United Nations Federal Credit Union in New York City.
