For 107 days, it was an honor to be Battleground Digital Director for the Harris-Walz Campaign, and deployed to Michigan to try to make history.

Working on the most digital-forward campaign in history, it was a privilege to build the battleground state of Michigan's digital operation from the ground-up -- working alongside my incredible fellow members of senior leadership, overseeing some of the most talented individuals in the industry, cultivating a vast network of creators/influencers to amplify the campaign's messaging, and collaborating with an unbelievable slate of political surrogates and celebrities coming through Michigan in support of VP Harris.
We shared a hopeful, optimistic vision for what the future of this country could be. It is my sincere belief that this 107 day campaign was executed as close to perfect as it could have been, given the circumstances. While the results were not what we had hoped, in the Northern Battleground 'Blue Wall' states, the margins were within 120K votes combined across Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
To echo the words of VP Harris,"Now is not the time to throw up our hands, but to roll up our sleeves."
When we fight, we win, but sometimes that fight just takes a little longer than expected. What we are fighting for has not ended, change is up to us.
Together, we move forward.
I could not be more proud of the community, events, and content we created as a team.
Thank you to all who were part of this journey.
