Congress Reporter
POLITICO |
- One of two main reporters for POLITICO’s Congress Minutes, a platform that captures incremental and significant moments in both chambers of Congress. Along with pitching and covering events on the Hill that are often overlooked, I’ve worked to aid both the Congress and policy teams in advancing their coverage. - From September 2021 to May 2022, I was both reporting and producing for the platform. This included creating an entirely separate workflow for the CMS, along with publishing and tweeting our work. Over the course of two years, we’ve amassed 11.3K followers on Twitter.
