What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities to apply my experience in law, public policy, government, and community-focused organizations.

At Color of Change, I create social media content about racial and social justice issues and help develop content standards and digital campaigns. I also research platform trends and turn community stories into digital content.

As a Legislative Intern with the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus, I research policy and legislation affecting Georgia communities and prepare summaries and briefing materials for legislative staff. I’m also building civic engagement initiatives at Savannah State University through the Rotaract Club and Vote with SSU Initiative.
