  • You've built coalitions of local stakeholders that showed up when it counted.
  • You write fast and clean: talking points, letters, and testimony.
  • You track the politics of a county the way analysts track a market.
  • Bonus: Data center or utility siting. Campaign or government experience. Crisis communications. Texas or upstate New York markets.
