Breaking Barriers
Karoline Leavitt, at the age of 27, has become the youngest person ever to hold the prestigious position of White House press secretary. Making waves from day one, she teased a major announcement from President Trump, marking a historic moment in the realm of political communication.
A Trailblazer in the Making
Leavitt's appointment marks the first time the job has been held by someone under 30 since 1969, during Richard Nixon's administration. Praised by Trump as smart, tough, and highly effective, she has already shown promise in delivering the administration's message to the American people.
From Campaigns to Capitol Hill
With a background in communications and political science, Leavitt's journey to the White House podium started with internships at Fox News and the White House Office of Presidential Correspondence. She later served as Trump's assistant press secretary and as a communications director for a House Republican, before launching her own bid for the US House of Representatives.
Mom, Fiancée, and Political Powerhouse
Despite being a mother to a son born in July 2024 and engaged to entrepreneur Nicholas Riccio, Leavitt wasted no time getting back to work. Her determination was sparked by a harrowing event at a Trump rally, where she witnessed an assassination attempt. Her resilience and dedication to her work have not gone unnoticed.
