By Danny Reiter, PolitickerMD.com Reporter

After leaving U.S. Sen. Barbara Mikulski's office in the fall, Melissa Schwartz says she's finished training and ready to apply the skills Mikulski tought her to her new job.

Schwartz served Maryland's Democratic senior Senator as communications director for over three years, but left in early October for a job at Powell Tate as vice-president, a strategic communications and consulting firm based in Washington D.C.

Schwartz, who finished her training just recently, said Mikulski shaped the way she views advocacy "on both a macro and micro level."
