Zoey graduated magna cum laude from Northern Arizona University where she was a nationally ranked debater and communication scholar. Post-graduation and prior to her work in Colorado, she spent time working on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. working in the office of Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and in the press shop of South Dakota Senator Tim Johnson. Translating complex issues into comprehensible messages, strong resolve and extensive knowledge of Colorado's political performance index are a few of the many talents she brings to CLS.
