Prior to her appearances on national and international networks, Rochelle served as a congressional Press Secretary for the House of Representatives Democratic Policy and Communications Committee (DPCC). While working on Capitol Hill, she developed strong relationships with national media outlets and facilitated interviews for the co-chairs of the DPCC — Reps. David Cicilline, Cheri Bustos, and Hakeem Jeffries Chairman of the Democratic Caucus. Rochelle’s media experience made her a trusted press consultant who was assigned by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s press office to provide media training to staff. In this episode we discuss media and crisis communications, being a black woman working in media, prioritizing your mental health and living life in the present moment.
