Nine of those years I served as Chief of Staff to Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, and for five years I was Chief of Staff to the House Committee on Ways and Means. My high level access gave me the unique experience of being directly involved in negotiations on all policy decisions that came before the House.

I use this knowledge and experience to develop positioning strategies and narratives that advance our clients' interests with decision-makers across state government.
