Description

In 2018, I served as Director of Strategy for 20 state representative and state senate candidates in Illinois. Despite a crushing blue wave, we managed to walk away with less losses than expected, much to the chagrin of the Madigan-Democrat machine. I specialize in using data in new ways to improve on old strategies.

I have been an active in politics since 2008, when I began as a field coordinator. Shortly after, I began working for the Republican Party, serving as Campaign Manager to a State Senator, and Executive Director of the local party. In 2016 worked as Political Director to a US Senator.

I am an expert in all parts of the political process, and have personally advised candidates on hiring staff, circulating petitions, volunteer recruitment, fundraising, voter outreach, and GOTV. I have built analytical voter models from internal surveys, created microtargeted universes, created and maintained Leadership Committees, and managed volunteer lists of over 100,000 contacts.
