Pick of the Day (2/24): Met Senator Heidi Heitkamp!

Recently, I was granted the wonderful opportunity to meet Senator Heidi Heitkamp, a sitting, Democratic Senator from North Dakota.

Senator Heitkamp is running for reelection in her home state, and passionately supports women's rights and technological innovation. The Senator recently helped pass a bill to "encourage technological innovation in carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) while also reducing carbon emissions"

​Hearing her speak about pressing issues like Native American liberties was fascinating. Personally, I'm excited to keep pursuing avenues between politics and tech – it's amazing what you can do when you combine the innovation of the 21st-century with the will of the people.
