Associate State Director of Advocacy

AARP is the nation's largest nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to empowering Americans 50 and older to choose how they live as they age.

I am a government relations advisor with extensive background in federal, state and local public policy. My expertise is in helping non-profits achieve desired legislative outcomes. I do this through collaboration, analytical thinking, and critical assessments of the political landscape. My strengths include innovation, adaptability, project management, and problem solving. I am effective at building and leveraging relationships, bridging coalitions, and serving as an advocate for the 50+ population. My length of time in the field has benefited my work as it has resulted in close connections to many decision makers throughout the state. Below is a listing of some of the government branches with whom I have collaborated.
