Statement

I hold a BSc in Biochemistry and spent a year working in the University of Utah's Proteomics Core, across biochemistry and internal medicine research. What I valued most was learning how to analyze complex systems and turn evidence into ideas. After the 2024 election, I applied that same approach to politics, producing a feature documentary about the forces that shaped America's current political moment. That work led directly to my role leading digital communications for the Womack for Congress campaign.

Got Here
