The latest tools in political technology allow us to reach decision makers and voters in surgically targeted ways that were previously impossible. But technology is only as good as the inputs that go into it.

Our leaders are career-long political professionals with extensive training in all of the tools of political advocacy. Many digital firms offer technical experience without the political chops. Many political consultants have the political pedigree without the technical expertise.

OUR
LEADERSHIP

Bryan Miller

President

Bryan has served two U.S. Presidents and has over 30 years of experience in public affairs and campaigns. He started in politics as a fundraiser and grassroots organizer for Clinton/Gore ’96, where he was the campaign’s youngest employee. He went on to form a successful fundraising group that helped congressional and local candidates win competitive races.

From 2007-2008, Bryan was a member of Obama For America’s National Fundraising Committee. He later served in the Obama Administration as Senior Counsel at the U.S. Department of Energy where he worked on climate change legislation and implementing a $90 billion dollar clean technology package.

Bryan’s public affairs experience has included running the solar industry’s advocacy across the country. During this time, the industry saw record expansions that were enabled by dozens of regulatory and legislative wins across the federal government and 47 states. A leading political journalist wrote that under his leadership the industry’s “mastery of guerrilla tactics is awe-inspiring.” Fortune profiled how he is “radically changing” political advocacy through technology.

He was the principal political strategist behind Proposition 36, the historic ballot measure in California that passed in 2024 with over 70% percent of the vote, which tackles California’s homelessness and fentanyl crises.

Bryan is a double graduate of The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where he received his B.A. in political science and his J.D.

He lives in Lafayette, California with his wife, dogs, and two college-aged daughters whenever they need their laundry done.
