My favorite part of the job was designing innovative initiatives and programs with the public affairs team to grow our community and support and develop the next generation of leaders to drive health equity and outcomes. I led the strategic planning and execution of Planned Parenthood Action Council events and electoral campaigns. I served as chief lobbyist, working with local, state, and federal policymakers to advance health equity and inclusive sex education in public classrooms. I worked in tandem with leadership and the board of directors as we navigated a complex political landscape. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the national network of state leaders as an affiliate of Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
