M.E. Ficarra

For more than a decade, M.E. has helped leaders stand out from the pack.

At West Wing Writers, M.E. has partnered with global CEOs, progressive activists, scientists, sports stars, and a Nobel laureate to develop ideas that stick and share stories that matter.

Before joining West Wing Writers, M.E. led digital content strategy for top nonprofits and Democratic candidates as Editorial Director at Anne Lewis Strategies (now Mission Wired), raising millions of dollars in grassroots contributions. Prior to that, M.E. managed media relations at the National Organization for Women through the 2016 election, the Women’s March, and the early days of the #MeToo movement.

M.E. graduated magna cum laude from Hamilton College, where she studied environmental policy and comparative literature. A proud native New Yorker, M.E. now lives in Takoma Park, Maryland with her husband and their cat Phoebe.
