Work History

Deputy State Director

I oversaw high-performing teams, providing guidance and mentorship to drive success in achieving department goals.

I also conducted thorough evaluations of program effectiveness, identifying areas for improvement and implementing necessary changes. Finally, I spearheaded training initiatives for staff development, boosting overall competency levels across the team.

Field Director

Pennsylvania Democratic Party
08.2023 - 11.2023

Hired, managed and led a team in Philadelphia to recruit volunteers, knock doors and call voters before the 2023 election. Our several person team knocked on 6,700 doors, called 4,500 voters and 14,205 recruitment calls made over two and a half months. We recruited 713 volunteer shifts for Philadelphia and other counties, including a statewide dialer GOTV phonebank.

Field Organizer

Rhynhart For Philadelphia

Organized the Fishtown, Port Richmond, and Kensington areas for the Rebecca Rhynhart campaign. I directly coordinated door to door canvasses, made recruitment phone calls, and managed relationships with volunteers and community leaders.

Regional Organizing Director

Pennsylvania Democratic Party Coordinated Campaign
07.2022 - 11.2022

I became the regional organizing director of the Chester and Delaware county team in mid-July. I learned the regional culture for the surrounding counties and educated myself on the position in a quick manner without impacting the quality of our work. For the last few months of the campaign I hired many new field organizers and trained them for the position, and during GOTV we met and exceeded goals as a team. My team also had great electoral success in the two counties we worked in, with both counties voting 8 points more democratic than in 2020.
