Tia began her career working on the fundraising side of several campaigns at the national and state levels. In 2015, she took a break from the campaign trail to pursue a Master of Public Administration, while working as a Legislative Aide in the Massachusetts State Senate. Her experiences in Massachusetts led her to reorient her view from reinforcing what government is currently to one of imagining and advocating for what government could and should be. Just prior to joining The States Project, Tia worked to uplift the voices of women of color, immigrants, and care workers with the National Domestic Workers Alliance and Care in Action. Tia is an alumna of American University’s School of International Service and Northeastern University’s School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs.
