I am a graduate of the University of Vermont with a bachelor's in Political Science and Sociology. A passionate cannabis advocate, I started and have directed the NORML chapter of Vermont since February 2021. What started as a passion project and has grown into a legitimate player in Vermont cannabis politics, NORML is proud to support social equity initiatives and our dozens of business and individual members. During my career, I have continually worked in Vermont State and local politics with experience in both campaign and policy work. I am a very motivated and passionate individual who loves to work with others and has a strong capacity for problem-solving. Originally from New York, I have been involved in a variety of social and political campaigns both as an organizer/leader and as a participant. I am actively pursuing a career in politics, criminal justice, and advocacy where I can leverage my ability to connect diverse groups of people, foster meaningful relations, and utilize my ability to communicate complex ideas to non-specialized audiences.
