Welcome to Rep. Mark Strama's Campaign Academy 2010 Blog!

The Mark Strama for State Representative Campaign Academy is a unique summer opportunity for high school and college students to work inside a high-profile campaign. We are learning the nuts and bolts of modern politics as well as the important policy questions that confront state government. Lunch speakers come in everyday ranging from current and former elected officials, political consultants, and university professors to state policy experts to share their experiences in politics with us.

Campaign Academy has been dedicated to ensuring that all students like us have a rewarding and challenging experience, while making a difference in the political system.

Holly Heinrich

Name: Holly Heinrich
Age: 18 
School and Year in School: incoming freshman at the University of Texas at Austin; 2010 graduate of Westlake High School
Major: Sociology 
Elevator Pitch: I'm interested in both journalism and government because of the impact these fields can have on people's lives. Journalism spreads awareness about the issues; public policy can directly solve them. I've had experiences in both fields--I've interned in Rep. David Farabee's office and interned at Texas Monthly magazine, and I write for my community newspaper, The Westlake Picayune. 
Favorite Political Figures: Barack Obama and Kirk Watson 
Hobbies: Writing, Hiking, Swimming, Politics
