What I'm looking for

I seek mission-driven government relations roles where I can build trusted partnerships, apply policy analysis and public-sector data analytics, lead stakeholder engagement, and scale advocacy to drive measurable public impact.

I am a government relations professional with 5+ years of experience building strategic partnerships across elected officials, civic organizations, and industry. I launched the Stakeholder Engagement function at Elizabeth Seton High School, growing relationships from zero to 150+ active partnerships and later building trusted alliances with over 200 elected officials to elevate the institution's policy-aligned reputation.

I drive measurable results through policy analysis and strategic outreach, delivering a 30% increase in policy-aligned initiatives and securing Lt. Governor Aruna Miller to speak to over 500 students while achieving 80% student participation in a youth mental health initiative. I integrate AI tools and public-sector data analytics (RStudio) to personalize stakeholder engagement, improve legislative tracking, and inform executive decision-making.
