Warren is a former Harvard professor specializing in bankruptcy law and an active consumer protection advocate. She became famous because of her strong position supporting stricter banking regulations after the 2008 financial crisis.
In 2010, she helped set up the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), an agency created by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
In 2012, Warren defeated Republican incumbent Scott Brown and she became the first female U.S. Senator from Massachusetts. Her constituents re-elected her in 2018.
