Teen pop singer turns congressional staffer in Graves' office

Posted by Jenna Ebersole on May 12, 2015

For many of the youngest Capitol Hill staffers, experience in a congressional office tops their career highlights. But for one 20-year-old who works for Rep. Sam Graves (R-Mo.), graduating before turning 21 and starting in Congress may rank somewhere in the middle.

Katelynne Cox is a 20-year-old legislative correspondent and staff assistant who has recorded one album with a label and two EPs in her career as a teen pop singer. Her album "One Girl" was released in 2011 with Red Hammer Records following her first independent EP in 2008 and a second, "Erase It," last summer.

"Politicians and our parents, we can't leave it up to them. We may be young but we are strong and this is our chance to begin," she sings in one song.

Cox has a bachelor's in communication studies and political science from the University of Missouri - Columbia and also has experience modeling.
