“What drew me to Purple was the political campaign-inspired and data-driven approach my colleagues bring to every client engagement. In this volatile environment when any issue can become politicized, Purple’s unique culture and deep expertise is invaluable.”

“I live and work by the principle that while people we encounter rarely remember what we say, they always remember how we make them feel. I learned early in my career that fostering a culture of mutual respect and assuming positive intent are some of the most important skills to nurture in this business.”
