I am a public affairs, government relations, and communications professional who has worked both for start ups and a Fortune 500 company.

In my previous role as Director of Government Affairs for an EV charging company, I organized site visits with policymakers, successfully advocated for EV policies in several states, and contributed to company newsletters, blog posts, and webinars. These efforts helped secure a significant U.S. Postal Service contract through strategic government relations.

Lobbying federal and state legislators and regulators, my colleagues and I played a pivotal role in shaping policies affecting the business environment. With expertise in both external affairs and communications, I have advocated at all levels of government.

My interests include politics, history, and the Washington Commanders. I also enjoy movies, travel, and coffee.
