Current Occupation | George Mason University |
Tagline | Gen-Z organizer with years of experience helping elect Virginia Democrats |
Bio | My story started in a hospital bed in March 2020 where I saw firsthand the consequences of MAGA Republicans’ lack of leadership. After a lifetime of learning to help other people at all times, I decided to take the leap of faith and volunteered for Joe Biden. I have since become very involved in the Democratic Party at both the state and county levels (because all politics is local!) and have strived to be a voice for the next generation of Democrats in places where I was often the youngest in the room by a few decades. |
Impact | It was often hard to find my voice growing up, but progressive politics has helped me find it over the past few years. I have helped run social media accounts for the different organizations I work with (ex. Virginia Teen Democrats from 2021-2022) as well as my own personal social media, where I have advocated for policies and candidates that Virginia Democrats support. |
Mission | 2024 and 2025 will be two years that will likely decide what Virginia and America look like for the rest of my lifetime. I’m ready to build on my current experience and do whatever it takes to meet this moment. |
