Originally from Charleston, South Carolina, Amy studied biomedical engineering and global affairs at Yale University. Upon graduation, she joined the Obama Administration as a political appointee in the Office of the Secretary at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), supporting policy impact analyses and briefings to the Secretary. At the turn of the administration, she joined Deloitte Consulting's federal practice and, later, Boston Consulting Group, continuing her work with federal agencies and gaining exposure to commercial strategy. Amy is returning to Princeton's MPA program after a leave of absence to support COVID-19 vaccinations rollout and policy on the White House COVID-19 Response Team, followed by a year of strategy and operations work as part of the HHS Office of the Deputy Secretary. She completed her MPA internship this past summer with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in London.
