"Blue in a Red State"
In 2017, I was elected to serve as Secretary of the Payne County (OK) Democrats. In addition to updating our website and newsletters, I led the planning of two of our most successful fundraisers (Brayfest 2017 and Diamond Donkey 2019), and helped coordinate our participation in events around the county. During the two years I was a part of the PCD leadership, we saw Stillwater become bluer in elections and an increase in engagement with the party.
Since then, I have been able to get engaged at the district level. I chaired the Credentials Committee for our 2019 Third Congressional District Convention. I look forward to continuing to work with both, our state party as well as our present and future candidates. |

2018 Brut. Media Interview
I was interviewed by Brut. Media in 2018 as a part of their midterms coverage: The Voters series. I was one of several Americans voting "unexpectedly" - such as being Blue in a Red State (other interviewees included a Muslim woman who was a Trump supporter, a veteran who votes Democrat, and a conservative transwoman).

Democrats Abroad NorwaySince moving to Norway, I have helped coordinate a presidential primary voting location in Stavanger and have continued my efforts to register voters.
In May 2021, I was elected to the position Vice Chair of Democrats Abroad Norway, a division of Democrats Abroad, the state-level party for Democrats living outside of the USA. I was elected to this position with an eye to getting Democrats engaged across Norway, as we have a strong presence in Oslo. If you are an American citizen, YOU CAN VOTE, no matter where you live.
