About Me

I am new the nDash, but not new to the research and writing world. I am a recent graduate of the University of Mary Washington with a BA in Political Science and Sociology. I am currently a policy analyst at a health IT non-profit, which my daily jobs include researching topics including prior authorization, patient engagement and medication adherence. I write short whitepapers about all health IT topics. These are often written to help readers understand a complicated term or issue in one to two pages. I am just starting out as a freelancer on the side, and would love any advice you have!

Honesty

I wrote a study and interviewed around 1000 people in the state of Virginia about how honest was each Presidential candidate. Honesty seemed to not matter when it came to the presidency. There are many surprises in this article.

Experience

Policy Analyst & Coordinator, CEO

I am the go-to person for all the CEO's needs. Often this is administrative work. It has taught me to be quick and organized, which helps the CEO keep a tight and smooth schedule. I often do research for the CEO on all types of topics including people, companies and issue areas. I am also the non-profit's policy analyst. I work under the Senior Policy Advisor. Under her direction, I write letters to federal agencies, white papers about divisive issue areas, and do plenty of in-depth research.
