I joined Catalyst Public Affairs Group as a vice president in August of 2023. Prior to joining the Catalyst team, I was the Communications Director for the Indiana House Democratic Caucus. In that role, I was the caucus’ spokeswoman and press secretary to Indiana House Democratic Leader Phil GiaQuinta. As the chief communications official for the Indiana House Democratic Caucus, my responsibilities included overseeing all external-facing communications, media relations and social media, and acting as an advisor on matters of communications and policy to the caucus. During the last four years, I have worked on multiple campaigns concentrating on Indiana legislative races. I was a communications advisor and spokeswoman for the Indiana House Democratic Caucus Campaign Committee, along with other communications and consulting roles on various campaigns for the Indiana Statehouse. I am an alumna of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) Paul H. O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs, formerly recognized as the IUPUI School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA), where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Media and Public Affairs (B.S.P.A.) in December of 2019. During my academic tenure at IUPUI, I had experience in communications, fundraising and event planning, completing internships and contracted work at the Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis, Jewish Community Relations Council, Ronald McDonald House Charities and Ascena Retail Group.
