Alyssa Farah is all communication, all the time. A dedicated senior government official, Alyssa spent over a decade breaking down complex issues—like COVID-19 and the war in Afghanistan—and communicating about them clearly for the American public. Having served as the White House Director of Strategic Communications, the youngest-ever Press Secretary for the Department of Defense, and the Press Secretary for the Vice President of the U.S., Alyssa is a go-to pro for harnessing the power of the podium. And that’s not lost on the private sector, where Alyssa recently served as a guest co-host on “The View” and provides keen political insight and analysis for major media outlets. Join hosts Dee Martin and Rebecca Brown as they discuss Alyssa’s career in government and shaping policy through strategic communications. Also hear about why Alyssa attributes a significant portion of her success to being a high school and college debater (Hint: Knowledge is power!). Plus, you don’t want to miss a sneak peek into what’s next for Alyssa!
