On the state level, I favorably assisted constituents to receive Medicaid, their unemployment benefits, and to favorably resolve their state tax issues with the Georgia Department of Revenue. I regularly attended federal and state congressional briefings to stay abreast of all federal and state policies, which allowed me to assist constituents, and to provide training to staff members. I conducted research on policy issues relevant to constituents and liaison with federal and state agencies congressional department to resolve their state and federal issues. I planned and attended chamber of commerce and community events that aligned with our community development initiatives monthly to discuss implementing new businesses and programs within our district. I also provided community updates to our community partners at these events.

I originated the housing unit in Congressman David Scott’s office, and served as the Senior Representative for the unit. I contacted the national banks and created relationships to work directly through their loan modification departments.  I assisted constituents with completing their financial packages to submit to their lender to determine their eligibility for a loan modification.  I also partnered with the United States Department of the Treasury each year to plan the Making Home Affordable event to bring constituents and banks all to the Georgia International Convention Center to determine if constituents would qualify for their foreclosures to be postponed to review their home loan to determine their eligibility for a loan modification.

I implemented that process with a 90% approval rate.

I introduced new policy legislation to Congressman David Scott for the Hardest Hit Fund Program, and he worked with the United States Department of the Treasury to get the policy implemented which allowed more constituents to get approved for the federally funded, state administered program. I received recognition yearly for having a 95% favorable rating for resolving constituent’s state and federal issues.

Lastly, I wanted to work with employment agencies and corporations to assist the homeless, and to also help them to seek employment as well.
