MEET CHRIS

Chris Taylor
Founding Principal & CEO

Chris Taylor is a political and public affairs strategist that has gained the trust of CEOs, elected officials, organizers, and nonprofit leaders that need to drive narratives, protect reputations, win campaigns, and promote social change.

His work has included developing strategic communications and message campaigns to end oil drilling in Los Angeles neighborhoods, build consensus around public health priorities in the Mountain West, advocate for the release of a wrongfully convicted man on death row, and secure passage of equity-driven legislation that legalized marijuana in Illinois. 

Chris is an alum of then Sen. Kamala Harris’ presidential primary campaign and a two-cycle alum of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). At DCCC, he led the committee’s seven-figure paid media campaign to reach Black voters through the 2020 cycle. Chris led the revamp of committee’s $30M+ people-of-color focused campaign investments in 2022 to deepen operational effectiveness, align key stakeholders, and strengthen the committee's reputation with critical stakeholders. As senior on-the-record spokesperson, Chris helped Democrats build narratives that led to the party’s best first-term midterm election results since the Kennedy administration. 

Outside the office, Chris is never afraid to remind you of his Midwest roots. He enjoys live music, painting on canvas, and experimenting with new recipes.
