National policy director for the Joe Biden 2020 presidential campaign and a senior policy advisor for the Biden White House
Success: “To me, authentic success is a feeling that I tried to make life better for others, whether or not I fully achieved my goal. I hope – I believe, most of the time – that I contributed in some small way to four years of policies that improved lives. I’m proud to have been a part of helping (Biden) win in 2020 and govern for four years. My aim moving forward is to keep trying to do good for other people.”
Her Own Business: “I have started my own business providing political, communications, and policy advice to elected officials, candidates, nonprofits, and businesses trying to navigate an evolving Washington and fast-changing world. In the long run, I’m still committed to public service. I’m trying to learn from what the Biden administration got right and what it got wrong, so aspiring presidential candidates can do even better. I’m sharing some of those lessons learned on my Substack, The Permanent Campaign.”
