Rina Shah is a voice for a new generation of political leaders. As a center-right woman of color and daughter of African and Indian immigrants, she has earned high acclaim for her sharp analysis and ability to carve a refreshing path between partisan extremes. A principled defender of democratic values and fierce advocate for systems reform, Rina is a frequent guest on the world’s top media networks for her commentary on a wide range of issues, and her editorials have been published in outlets ranging from The L.A. Times to The Washington Post. Rina has been a spokeswoman and top advisor for two U.S. presidential campaigns, senior aide to two Republican members of Congress, sought-after political strategist, accomplished businesswoman, and, most importantly, a wife and mother of three young daughters. She is known in Washington, DC as a coalition-builder who has elevated the role of women in government and politics, advanced pragmatic policy solutions, and ruffled more than a few old feathers. Rina believes that preserving the values that made America the most prosperous and powerful democracy in history does not mean running away from progress; she embraces a better future for all. Her favorite way to unwind is taking a jog at sunset to the Lincoln Memorial.
