Quotes I have known Ken for nearly 5 years. I met him during my legislative duties in Richmond and immediately found him to be a straight-forward and extremely trustworthy person. Ken is highly organized and well-connected! His networking contacts are unmatched and I always enjoy his ability to connect past and present policy decisions. Best of all, he has a wonderful sense of humor which is greatly appreciated during the long and sometimes arduous days in Richmond. I can't say enough good things about him. Quotes

Quotes Ken was always there to assist and can navigate the system quite well for legislative issues-like cutting through butter! Quotes
David Wilber
Chief Operating Officer, Eggleston Services

Quotes Ken knows how the legislature works, and he's willing to share his wealth of knowledge. After a day of training with Ken, I now feel confident walking into any legislator's office. Ken helped define our message, determine our audience and develop a lobby packet. Most importantly, he taught me the importance of following up with legislators. The work does not end with the visit to Capital Hill--in fact, the work has just begun. Every lobbying effort we've undertaken bears Ken's imprint. Quotes

Quotes Ken is a very talented lobbyist that has unique ability to review all angles of a situation objectively. He is strategic in utilizing his skills of communication and knowledge to create a positive outcome while working towards his client's objectives. Quotes

Owner, iMuse Design

Quotes We have worked with Ken since 1989 and have seen him grow, evolve and mature into a dynamic, effective lobbyist, advocate and consultant. Ken knows who to go to, what to say, how to get things done, and close the deal. He uses his broad range of knowledge, life and business experience to communicate and connect with people. When that doesn't resonate, then he turns on his charm or uses his comedic skills. People remember Ken and look forward to seeing him in their offices because he comes prepared, uses his face time effectively, and comes across as believable and passionate about the companies and causes he is representing.
