With more than 20 years of experience building relationships between the public and private sector, Tommy Alsup leads state and local government relations efforts for Vogel Group in Tennessee.

Tommy previously served as Vice President of Government Affairs for Envision Healthcare, a $15 billion healthcare and national hospital-based physician group. At Envision, Tommy was responsible for sourcing and managing state-level lobbyists to ensure that the company's strategic goals were met with governors, state legislators, and local officials across the country. His efforts were critical in securing favorable public policy on surprise medical billing issues in Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee.

Tommy is an expert in managing national sales and procurement teams for companies seeking to grow revenue through state and local funding initiatives. He has overseen multiple requests for proposals (RFP) and large-scale procurement contracts for companies and industries alike. Connecting State and local governments with business is crucial in this current environment, and Tommy has accomplished those goals for more than two decades.

Tommy was a senior-level government relations executive at Corizon Health and CoreCivic, the nation's largest owner of correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities in previous roles.

With a strong and bi-partisan background in Tennessee, Tommy served as Mayor of Oak Hill from 2002 to 2010, where he worked in partnership with Governor Phil Bredesen (D-TN) and Mayor Bill Purcell (D-Nashville). Tommy remains strongly engaged with the office of Governor Bill Lee (R-TN) and his administration.

Tommy received his B.A. in Business Administration from Lipscomb University.
