Jordan Coopwood, a native of Cleveland, Miss., graduated from the University of Mississippi in 2018, earning a Bachelor of Business degree with majors in Real Estate and Marketing. Jordan also earned a Master of Business Administration from Millsaps College in 2019, where he served as a graduate assistant and analyst within its ELSEWorks Entrepreneurship program.

Jordan joins Ten One Strategies holding more than 3 years of Capitol Hill experience, where he previously served in different capacities on the staffs of Senator Roger Wicker, Congressman Steven Palazzo, and most recently Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith. During his time as a Legislative Aide with Senator Hyde-Smith, Coopwood assisted primarily in the issue areas of Small Business, Banking/Financial Services, and Agriculture - where he worked regularly with professional staff members of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry and the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government.

Having the previous responsibilities of meeting with constituent stakeholder groups, researching policy, and preparing briefing materials, Jordan leverages this insight to effectively communicate on behalf of clients and produce practical, result-driven solutions. His understanding of the legislative process, government relationships, and broad experience from Washington, D.C., add immense value to the Ten One Strategies team as it expands federally.

Outside of work, Jordan is a passionate outdoorsman, enjoys long-distance running, and tailgating in the Grove for the Ole Miss Rebels.

Why did you choose lobbying?
During my time on Capitol hill, I had the opportunity to sit on the other side of the table during meetings with constituents and organizations. I couldn't help but notice what was clear and effective communication, and what wasn't. That being said, I chose to enter the government relations industry after seeing how attainable real and positive change is for Mississippi when stakeholders, industry leaders, and government officials put their heads together to problem-solve. Whether it be through appropriated federal funding, a changing legislative text, or simply bringing to light issues that affect everyday people, it's rewarding to pursue these goals, and on occasion be able to say, "I was a part of that".
