Bio
Cassandra U.
Molly is the epitome of what a person wants in a colleague: talented, aware, and humble. During our time at the Arizona State Senate, I was continuously impressed by Molly's effortless ability to anticipate the need of the Senate members and staff, with a substantial amount of efficiency and resourcefulness. Molly facilitates a team-oriented approach to mentoring and pushing others to grow constantly, and I always felt I could turn to her for any professional advice. It has been a joy working beside her and she would be invaluable to any organization as a leader or team member.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Molly as a fellow research intern at the Arizona Legislature. Molly always showed up ready to work with an excellent attitude which was much needed during many parts of the session. Above all, I was impressed with her commitment to an understanding of the legislative process and superb work ethic. Molly would be a true asset for any position requiring legislative research and policy writing.
