It’s funny, the other night I was out and some girl asked me what I do. I told her I am a lobbyist and she said “oh cool, I used to work at a hotel too but only at the front desk.” Sadly she was a current college student, who I am pretty sure has not yet taken Government 101.
Director of Legislative and Govermental Affairs. I work with Senate and House members in the State of Texas to obtain beneficial legislation as well as address state and local agency issues that impact my client. Some might say lobbyist...but I prefer to think of myself as an advocate for the right answer.
