Having curiosity with Amy McConkey

Amy McConkey grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina with two younger brothers in a deeply religious household. Father was a small businessman in textiles. She did not have much interest in politics as a child except for dinner talks during presidential elections. Amy was not sure which major to pick when she joined UNC-Chapel Hill until during her 2nd-semester class in political science. Most of her friends hated it except Amy.

Amy also loved writing and communicating. So, she also applied to the School of Journalism as a double major to tap into her communication skills. She got a taste of local politics when she started writing at the Daily Tarheel. From that point, after graduation.

How did she get into lobbying?

What is her favorite movie?

We talk all about it in this next episode with Amy McConkey.
