I bring clients a combination of legal training and more than a decade of hands-on Arkansas government relations experience. I have been a registered Arkansas lobbyist since 2013, representing organizations in areas including city government, insurance, health care, higher education, utilities, telecommunications, business and Arkansas's regulated medical-cannabis industry.
As a practicing Arkansas attorney, I approach legislative and regulatory issues with an eye toward both the policy objective and the legal and practical consequences of how a proposal is written, interpreted and implemented. My legal practice also gives me experience with real estate, title, estate and business matters that can be particularly useful when public policy intersects with property, development, licensing or regulated activity.
At 501 Strategies, I work with clients to understand the issue, build relationships with the people affected by it, communicate the client's position clearly and help move a practical strategy through the legislative or regulatory process. I bring a different perspective to the 501 team: the combination of an active law practice, long-standing Capitol experience and a relationship-driven approach to government relations.
