Message

At NYSDACC, I assist with implementing campaign plans for Assembly districts across the state. I conduct district-specific research, compiling and analyzing demographic data and election results.

At the New York Assembly, I drafted and filed legislation and researched policy to support decision-making and bill development. I also analyzed data and policy trends during my session internship, and created data visualizations as an Excel & Tableau Trainee at The Global Tech Experience.
