Introduction

I've always had a sincere interest in politics and how it can be used for the greater good. In working for the Senate, various political parties, state representatives and other government and school programs - I've had firsthand experience connecting people and resources to build better communities. I thrive in a creative space where I can construct programs from the ground up and make a powerful impact. And I'm results driven - fostering relationships that produce the most lucrative outcomes for all parties involved.

A consultant and lobbyist, I bridge clients to legislation, ensuring public interest groups, associations, corporations, nonprofits, unions and trade associations have a seat at the law-making table. I have a track record of opening doors the state of Michigan has historically kept shut, with the K-12 appropriations space as an example of where I've made strides - creating Section 99 that identifies how vendors can better partner with the state to provide more cost-effective resources. My consultancy spans strategic planning, forecasting, fundraising, grant writing, grassroots campaigning, and volunteer recruitment in the educational, for-profit and nonprofit sectors.
