Chelsea was born in Washington DC and lived in Maryland until her family moved to Iowa to reconnect with their Midwest roots when she was 10 years old. She’s always been inspired by her parents’ careers in advocacy. Being exposed to political figures since childhood was likely the foundation for her enthusiasm for policymaking and the legislative process. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in political science and a minor in sociology from the University of Iowa. While there, she sat on the founding board of the campus’ student chapter of the American Association for University Women (AAUW). Following graduation, Chelsea worked in journalism before transitioning to political research, specifically Congressional and state legislative bill analysis.
Outside of the political arena, Chelsea enjoys spending time with family, two cats, and her greyhound, Bertie. She can easily be found trying the latest vegan cuisine, antiquing, or supporting local shops in the Des Moines metro.
