Bio

I'm a current PhD student in Political Science and Public Policy, and an advocate, researcher, and policy and campaign consultant working at the intersection of the criminal legal system and democracy reform. I've been published in outlets including the Boston Globe, Cognoscenti-WBUR, and Law 360. I'm passionate about teaching, and hope to gain as much experience early on in my PhD program here at Duke.

I'm a current PhD student in Political Science and Public Policy, and an advocate, researcher, and policy and campaign consultant working at the intersection of the criminal legal system and democracy reform. I've been published in outlets including the Boston Globe, Cognoscenti-WBUR, and Law 360. I'm passionate about teaching, and hope to gain as much experience early on in my PhD program here at Duke.

My particular technical strengths are in writing, editing, and public speaking. I'm eager to help folks with these skills, and also individuals looking for support broadly on public policy, political science, social change, and literature. I have particular experience in election reform/election law and criminal justice reform.

Last, I'm open to working with all students, but as someone who's learned to manage ADHD both in school, work, and life, am especially equipped to develop strategies to help folks who have similar challenges with different learning needs and styles.

Public Speaking

Over the past 5 years, my work in policy, community organizing, and advocacy has allowed me to translate my writing skills into persuasive and effective speech writing and making. I have written for myself and delivered speeches to audiences ranging from legislative committees to prison reform supporters and doubters alike. I've written speeches on subjects ranging from Trump's impeachment proceedings to election law administration, and my clients have included elected legislators seeking support for webinar speeches or speeches on the House/Senate floor, to young organizers looking to try out the power of persuasion in their classrooms. I'm passionate about considering content, context, and audience -- and also the unique needs, perspectives, and abilities of my client -- to shape my writing, guidance, and coaching.
