Nathan Albert Kuipers
I grew up outside of Detroit, soaking in the culture, history, and music of the city. At 17, I spent a summer performing as a touring musician, and began my music education studies at the University of Tampa.
After walking through the doors at UT, Tampa became the home I chose. I spent my college years performing and teaching students in Hillsborough County schools, including Mitchell and Plant.
At 20, my political career began by interning with Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign. I went to DC, Indiana, and South Dakota, working for Democrats even in red districts.
In 2016 and 2020, I was a field organizer and learning consultant for independent voter registration organizations. Our teams registered over 30,000 voters across Tampa.
My time in the trenches as an organizer taught me that when Florida Democrats come together and fight, we win. I am the only candidate who lives and works in this district. I know my neighbors, I believe in Democrats, and together we will win.
