My passion for public service began in my early 20s while volunteering for local candidates. That experience led to me serving as finance director for the Republican Party of Arkansas. There, I led fundraising initiatives and worked to bring high-profile leaders to the state for events. When Asa Hutchinson was elected governor in 2014, I was honored to join his staff as his executive assistant, AEDC liaison and director of special projects. In July 2019, I was appointed chief communications and legislative director for the newly created Department of Commerce.
