DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF PARTNER SUCCESS
As Deputy Director of Partner Success, Ani Kelemdjian (she/her) supports the management of Vote Rev and Vote Rev Action Fund's expanding portfolio of campaign and nonprofit partners in implementing the vote tripling suite of tactics through in-depth holistic coaching.
Ani began her campaign and organizing career as a fellow during President Obama's re-election campaign and has since worked on statewide, congressional, and local campaigns. She believes in the power of quality voter engagement and investing in expanding the electorate through voter registration and authentic conversations. She has applied this commitment to projects focused on increasing civic participation in low turnout districts, as well as for historically low turnout elections such as school board races. Before joining Vote Rev and Vote Rev Action Fund, she was the Senior Manager of Campaign Strategy at an education-focused nonprofit where she co-managed the organization's 501(c)(4) arm. There she helped lead independent expenditures for student-endorsed school board members, bond measures, and Governors across four states (CA, CO, NC, MN).
Ani is a first generation-American and Angeleno and enjoys exploring the many neighborhoods Los Angeles has to offer. She's committed to deepening her Armenian heritage and is passionate about social justice and the first-generation experience in America.
