“I’m most inspired when I have a good problem to figure out. I love to come into something that can’t be done and say, ‘What if we did this?’,” Amy says. “A large part of my job is problem-solving: finding the right thing to say at the right time and handling all of the logistics.”

"I love it when we communicate with the public in a way that resonates with them and they feel truly heard for the first time. It's incredibly rewarding to provide a voice to those who may have previously been overlooked or who have lost faith in government. Seeing their concerns acknowl­edged and addressed reinforces the importance of our work and builds meaningful connections."
