My name is Christina Pushaw. I am a political consultant, writer, and nonprofit founder based in Washington, DC and Tbilisi, Georgia. My work and life has been focused on the country of Georgia, not U.S. domestic politics. In Georgia, I have worked with the democratic opposition on campaign strategy and building closer ties with the U.S., regardless of which party is in power -- Georgia is fortunate to have bipartisan support from the U.S., a strategic partner.
