Proven Track Record of Electoral Success
Campaign Victories
As Field Organizer for the Minnesota DFL, I managed comprehensive voter outreach across Southern Hennepin County, coordinating efforts for 14 candidates across multiple levels of government—from state representatives to the presidential ticket.
My territory remained 100% blue, winning every down-ballot race including state house seats, county commissioner positions, and federal congressional districts. I successfully defended ranked-choice voting in Bloomington by helping defeat a Republican-backed ballot measure.
Record-Breaking Results
Edina, Minnesota—a key city within my territory—achieved the highest voter turnout in the state and among the highest nationally, while simultaneously increasing Democratic margins from the previous election cycle.
This success resulted from strategic volunteer training, data-driven canvassing operations, and strong partnerships with local elected officials and community leaders to maximize voter engagement and turnout.
