PC111 - Inventing Congressman Santos with Naysa Woomer
Naysa Woomer is the former Communications Director for George Santos. Prior to this, Naysa was the Communications Specialist for the Massachusetts Department of Revenue and the Communications Director for the Massachusetts Republican Party. She also had the opportunity to work in the Massachusetts Governor’s Office under Charlie Baker. She holds a BA in Political Science from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and attended the Human Rights and Comparative Politics program at the University of Oxford.
Naysa joins me today to share her experience working as a communications director for New York’s 3rd congressional district, George Santos. She outlines the false claims George Santos has made about his biography, family background, and education. She also discusses how she cares for her well-being amid a dynamic and intense environment like the political arena and shares her future goals.
“The one thing I’ve learned with time is that you have to cut yourself off at some point; it can wait tomorrow. When the day’s over and you go home, give yourself peace for your own mental health.” - Naysa Woomer
