THE LATEST

I've shifted my focus to political work! Since 2017, I've been working on democracy reform issues and campaigns in many capacities. The most important organization I work with is Voters Not Politicians, which in 2018 ended gerrymandering in Michigan by passing a citizen-led initiative for independent redistricting reform! In 2020 I have worked on voting rights awareness, access and expansion with multiple organizations and coalitions.
