Lizzy Chan

Principal

After a short stint as a magazine copy editor—where she learned the AP Stylebook backward and forward—Lizzy got her start in political communications managing President Barack Obama’s social media accounts. (This was back when having an American president on Twitter was a cool thing and not a source of major global anxiety.)

Lizzy stuck with politics, and following a tour of duty with the Democratic National Committee, she joined Hillary for America as a senior strategist overseeing digital rapid response content. She later worked at Sheryl Sandberg’s family foundation as head of digital content, dividing her time between Lean In and Option B programming.

Prior to joining Fenway in 2020, Lizzy was one of the founding team members at Supermajority, an organization that builds women’s political power in the U.S. Her work there included establishing the organization’s voice, messaging, and digital communications strategy.

Lizzy holds a bachelor of journalism from the University of Missouri. She lives in Brooklyn.
