My favorite thing about going to work is being surrounded by such insightful, bright, kind, and supportive colleagues. Hearing about the various projects team members are leading is exciting and sparks my own creativity. Plus, I know I can lean on coworkers when navigating complex and often-changing policy topics.
Project confidence, even if you don’t feel it.
Carole Fisher gave me this piece of advice, explaining that while building confidence is a gradual process, we are in control of some critical things like being an active listener, practicing confident body language, not being afraid to ask for support, and my favorite – using humor.

I like to try different yoga classes, locate the best bike lanes in DC, defend the state of New Jersey, and consume copious amounts of reality television.
Recently, I took an incredible trip to Peru with one of my childhood friends. It was exhilarating to bike and hike while catching breathtaking views of Machu Picchu and especially rewarding to practice our Spanish.
