Amelia graduated from the MPP in 2024 and works as the Deputy Director for the State Ethics Commission. She is from Carlsbad, NM and earned her undergrad from UNM in 2019 with a bachelors in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology. Amelia wants to use her MPP to facilitate collaboration among the private and public sectors. Her goal is to bridge silos and unlock the full potential of our state, ensuring that combined efforts lead to substantial and sustainable solutions. Amelia’s most cherished memories from the MPP program are the moments spent engaging with classmates and professors, whose passion and intellect have been nothing short of inspiring. The most significant lesson she will take with her is the profound impact that a collective of dedicated individuals can have on our state's future. She is excited to see the positive impact herself and her peers will make in the coming years. Amelia extends her heartfelt gratitude to Melissa Binder, Emma Tomingas-Hatch, and all those who have contributed to the MPP program's excellence. Their thoughtfulness and dedication have not only shaped an exceptional educational journey but also profoundly influenced who she has become. Check out Amelia's policy blog!
