Driven by a passion for investigative rigor and policy advocacy, I bring a diverse background in political strategy, legislative analysis, and grassroots organizing to the table. Currently serving as Deputy Chief of Investigations for the New York State Senate, I lead multifaceted inquiries into environmental permitting while fostering collaborative relationships with technical experts for impactful outcomes. My tenure as a Legislative Fellow honed my ability to navigate complex policy landscapes, managing climate and environmental portfolios with precision and engaging stakeholders for informed decision-making. Prior roles, including Communications Director for a municipal campaign and Field Organizer for Pennsylvania Democrats, underscore my commitment to effective messaging and grassroots mobilization. Armed with a Master's in Public Policy from Harvard University, I'm equipped with a nuanced understanding of democratic institutions and strategies to combat misinformation, exemplified in my capstone on countering misinformation in elections. With a track record of driving meaningful change at both local and state levels, I'm dedicated to advancing evidence-based policies that serve communities and uphold democratic principles.
