I've made a complete career change and here's why.
Producing TV takes a ton of work, 12, 14 to 16 hour days is pretty typical.
But after the election in 2016, I knew in my heart that if I was going to work hard, the work had to mean more, much more. Sure enough an opportunity came my way to make the transition.
In early 2018 I took a job canvassing for an Assembly candidate.
Knocking doors that day I had the Oprah, A Ha! moment.
At the end of the day I went to my Manager and said, please give me more responsibility, this is for me!
I was quickly promoted and began learning the ropes of managing canvassing campaigns.
A stand-out in my new career was helping to elect Christy Smith to the CA State Assembly, flipping a red seat to blue.
I'm committed to electing & re-electing Democratic Candidates and to Organizing for the ideals that support a progressive vision.
I love this work and look forward to new opportunities to both work with great Candidates and Organize for progressive causes.
