Political Work

Got involved with making political ads during the 2020 election cycle. Worked for seven different campaigns, including four races for US Congress.

  • Creative Lead, Patricia Ackerman for Congress, Nevada District 2 – produced and edited all of Patricia's campaign videos, accounting for over $70,000 of spend on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and television. Raised over $16,000 from direct donate Facebook ads on a $700 exploratory budget.

  • Video marketing lead, Angelica Dueñas for Congress, California District 29 – produced and edited direct donate and voter outreach ads for a progressive challenger in a historically low-turnout district. Received over 91,000 votes on just a $60,000 campaign budget (43% of the total vote).
