My Take
Hope Hicks intrigues me as someone allergic to the spotlight who nonetheless sat at the center of recent history. Born in Greenwich, Connecticut, a former model and SMU graduate, she went from Trump campaign press secretary to White House communications director while still in her twenties. There's a strange paradox in handling words for a living yet staying so determinedly in the shadows. Whatever your politics, I can't help wondering what kind of pressure forged that composure so young. I'll set the partisan debate aside and simply acknowledge the nerve it took to survive that inner circle.
