A native of Birmingham, Alabama, I grew up in a close-knit Southern community where values like connection and advocacy were deeply ingrained. My experiences taught me the importance of standing up for meaningful change, not just for loved ones, but for the broader community that shares similar struggles—whether that’s fighting for justice, better healthcare, or improved social systems.
I pursued my passion for public service at The University of Alabama, where I earned a degree in Political Science with a minor in International Studies. While there, I served in customer service roles and dedicated myself to community service. I worked at the Children’s Hands-On Museum in Tuscaloosa and participated in community outreach through Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. As a member of the community service committee, I helped organize toy drives, feminine care product drives, and soup kitchen events.
After graduating, I moved to Washington, D.C., where I completed a nine-month internship with Congresswoman Terri Sewell’s office. This experience deepened my understanding of legislative work by drafting constituent correspondence, preparing memos, and researching critical policy issues such as voting rights, education, and healthcare. Although I have transitioned from Capitol Hill, I remain actively involved in political engagement through organizations like Congressional Black Associates and the Black Women’s Congressional Alliance, where I continue to build connections and contribute to meaningful discourse in the field.
Driven by my growing interest in the legal field, I currently work as a Legal Assistant at Myerson Law Group, P.C., where I collaborate with the legal team to support clients and tackle complex cases. I am passionate about staying engaged with the ever-evolving world of politics, continuously learning, reading, networking, and discovering new places.
