Kevin Allis
Founder & President
Thunderbird Strategic LLC


Thunderbird Strategic advocates client interests in a very focused and disciplined "business like" manner. Merely having a presence in DC, or a resume with fancy Capitol Hill job titles, is of little value to clients in need of attentive and effective advocacy. Our team treats client policy priorities as "value propositions" that must be delivered to a particular customer segment...in this case members of Congress, Agencies, and/or the Administration. Alongside the client, we carefully breakdown the elements that shape the value proposition/policy priority, and then craft an effective package the delivers and maintains a close relationship with the target audience. Through this strategic planning process we identify meaningful metrics and short-term objectives that can monitor performance in a way that ensures the effort stays on track with expectations. Washington, DC is becoming less about "who you know," than it is about "how you approach Capitol Hill." With years of experience working in Washington DC as attorneys and government relations practitioners, the Thunderbird Strategic team brings a high level of knowledge, commitment, passion, and attention to detail when working with clients. Representing diverse clients as an attorney for the Washington, DC based law firm of PilieroMazza PLLC, enabled me the opportunity to understand the significance of listening carefully and embracing what is important. This skill allows me to critically analyze a problem or interest, and then develop a creative, logical, and effective measure to achieve desired solutions. It is this extensive knowledge and experience as an attorney, business leader, and lobbyist that I am committed to deliver to our clients.
