Before joining WILL, CJ was a policy advisor to State Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald in the Wisconsin Legislature.  He has a Master’s degree in Public Policy from the University of Chicago and law degree from Marquette Law School.  He received a BA in Political Science from Michigan State University.
