Upon graduation, she was formally offered a job at the State Senate and remained in that position for a year and some months.
Graduating during the month of May 2020 was challenging because a global pandemic had ensued and the buzz words were, “Hiring Freeze” as well as “Remote Work”. She relied heavily on her professional network to navigate her first career.
