My CV

I land on the liberal end of the political spectrum, guided by my moral compass and energized by the government's potential to improve citizens’ lives.

In my final semester at Tulane, I approached the job search with hyper-focused vision, only looking for full-time positions in Washington, DC related to communications, government, policy and business. After two years at a lobbying firm, I was recruited as a public affairs subject-matter expert (SME) at Ruder Finn, a global public relations (PR) firm, tasked with developing and enacting external relations strategies for multinational companies facing regulatory scrutiny or unwanted media attention. Later, I managed media relations and public messaging as Director of Product Communications at an ad tech platform, Pixalate. As a former lobbyist and PR professional, I am used to interacting with high-level officials, media, internal teams and external stakeholders and have found success connecting disparate groups and ideas in pursuit of larger policy goals, reputation management needs and influence in the public-sphere.

Now, I am looking for new opportunities in related fields.
