She serves as a trusted advisor to the State’s Attorney and leads messaging strategy around undoing racial inequities and several important initiatives including; high-profile police accountability cases, the opening of a sentencing review unit to review harsh sentences, and a new policy rollout for the release of low-level offenders during COVID-19.

Recently, she crafted a sensitive message around the release of three wrongfully convicted individuals that showed their humanity as newly freed men, and her media prowess meant the story landed on the front page of the Washington Post, as well as global outlets. Credited as one of her proudest professional moments, “Watching these men walk out of prison with child-like smiles, uncontrollable tears… able to hug their families for the first time in nearly 40 years helped me to recognize my own gifts and reaffirmed my commitment to amplify the good work in and around my city.”

Prior to joining the State’s Attorney’s Office, she led communications and customer service at the DC Department of Public Works where her job was to apprise DPW’s nearly 1,430 employees, and DC’s 658,000 residents, of happenings in one of the district’s largest government agencies. She transformed the team from a small, reactive unit into a strong collective of highly motivated professionals. Prior to this role, Zy served in varying communications and public relations roles in the private, non-profit and public sectors.

She is a woman of firsts, with a vivacious and infectious energy that is unparalleled. Single mother to a college student and a high school senior, Daily Record’s“40 under 40” award winner, and profiled by American Magazine for her accomplishments, Zy is a tenacious leader, a champion, and a symbol of strength and courage in a city that needs heroes.

She received her B.A. degree in history from Morgan State University in 2003 and her M.A. degree in public
communications in 2011 from American University.
