Campaign Intern

May 2020 - Aug 2020
As an intern in the 2020 Reelection Campaign of Congressman Max Rose for the 11th District of N.Y., I received a hands-on introduction to realpolitik and campaign strategy in contemporary American politics. My main responsibilities included condensing research on geographical voter patterns into compact briefs for the senior campaign staff. In addition, as part of my work with the Donor Prospecting team I was able to expedite the fundraising process through donor research and analysis. As part of a professional work environment, I became familiar with the inner workings the 2020 election and through interactions with voters themselves, I’ve enriched my own ability to communicate ideas to people from all walks of life.
