Expertise
Consulting:
Experienced Campaign Strategist and Campaign manager working primarily in Essex and Middlesex Counties in Massachusetts. Experience in politics and political analysis in Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Virginia. Prefer local/state campaigns but experienced working with and supporting congressional and state-wide campaigns. Able to lead a campaign team or partner/consult as part of a team.
Political Ideology Disclosure: I only work or volunteer for candidates that share common ground in political beliefs with me. I do not believe anyone agrees on 100% of issues, so I seek candidates that share my values as a public servant, community leader/volunteer, or political thinker. I also support and work for candidates outside my core political beliefs but who are running against incumbents that are far from my political beliefs. I expect to discuss political beliefs on a variety of key issues with a candidate prior to signing on with a campaign. To facilitate that process, my politics sit between those of the Blue Dog Caucus and the New Democrat Coalition.
