Public Service Meets

Strategic Impact

Led by former State Senator Tina Maharath, Lobby Edge combines real-world policy experience with deep commitment to equity and systems change.

Meet Tina Maharath

As the first Laotian-American woman elected to a U.S. state senate, Tina Maharath’s journey is one of breaking barriers and rewriting systems from the inside out. After serving in the Ohio State Senate, she founded Lobby Edge to help others access the same influence she fought to achieve.
