Jennifer Sheehan, Cabaret Singer, 26
At MYD meetings and events we often are overwhelmed by the number of interesting and talented individuals that come through the doors. I know that I was impressed at every single event last year at the eagerness of MYD members to volunteer their time and to work hard for causes that they believe in. Jennifer is no exception and a great example of a member who doesn’t necessarily have a career in politics (and honestly, her career is awesome) but… Read More
Prince Agarwal, VA Young Dem Transplant, 30
Prince Agarwal has been volunteering in Democratic Politics since Lt. Gov. Don Beyer’s Campaign for Governor of Virginia in 1997. He is constantly inspired by people who refuse to re-hash the same campaign slogan over and over. He appreciates honesty, creativity and assertiveness in candidates like Howard Dean. 
Prince had worked his way up to the Vice President of Finance in the Virginia Young Democrats when he moved to New York in 2006. Like many young people Prince… Read More
Jeffrey Mailman, Attorney, 28
Jeffrey Mailman became an active member of MYD just about 2 years ago when he officially moved to Manhattan from his home-borough of Queens. He felt at home right away with a long history of serving the public.

Eric Katz, Labor Guy, 24
Eric Katz is currently attending Cardozo Law School while simultaneously holding posts in various school organizations and as the Labor Caucus chair of NYSYD.

Like many of us Eric was… Read More
Christina Chang, New MYD Member!, 24
Christina is a new member of MYD and already an active participant in the Women’s Issues Committee (she’s on the Host Committee for Engendering Progress, 2nd annual event to honor women thought-leaders, activists, and philanthropists on Thursday!) Christina was interested in joining MYD while at Barnard but didn’t think that she had the time to commit, and it’s no wonder! She was an active member of several clubs and organizations, holding several high positions (Vice President of Student… Read More
Julia McCarthy Hanes, 28 until Thursday
Julia Hanes grew up in a very political family in a suburb of Philadelphia. Politics were always a hot button issue at the dinner table and Julia has fond memories of filling out her first ballot and watching her father, Hon. D. Bruce Hanes being sworn in as Montgomery County’s Register of Wills. She’s even confessed that it was more exciting when President Obama won the election than when the Phillies won the World Series!
Julia moved to New… Read More
