Amanda is currently the communications director of the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School. In 2004 she was national director of Kerry-Edwards Media Corps, a grassroots communications and press effort. That project required studying feedback mechanisms online — newspapers, blogs, journals, bulletin boards — and coordinating campaigns to push the campaign’s message in those venues. She later traveled with Zack Exley to Ohio to oversee transfer of tens of thousands of online activists to local field operations. During the primary season, she was national director of Generation Dean, Howard Dean’s official youth outreach effort, overseeing online organizing and communications.
