Speaking & Advisory

This page outlines speaking and advisory work focused on policy analysis, strategic messaging, and decision-making in complex political environments.

The work centers on restoring clarity and discipline to public discourse through rigorous analysis, historical context, and ethical grounding. Engagements are designed to support institutions and organizations operating where policy, politics, and public perception intersect.

Speaking Engagements

Speaking engagements are tailored for policy-oriented and institutional audiences seeking insight rather than rhetoric.

Core areas of focus include:

• Political and geopolitical risk analysis
• Strategic messaging and narrative formation
• The role of emotion versus reason in public opinion
• Policy communication in polarized environments
• Faith, ethics, and moral framing in political discourse
• Domestic and international political dynamics as interconnected systems

Presentations emphasize context, analytical frameworks, and historical grounding rather than advocacy or partisan positioning.

Formats include:

• Policy briefings and presentations
• Panels and moderated discussions
• Institutional and think tank forums
• Private stakeholder sessions

Advisory and Strategic Counsel

Advisory work is selective and project-based.

Services are designed to support organizations involved in:

• Policy development and advocacy
• Lobbying and public affairs strategy
• Messaging architecture and narrative alignment
• Political and cultural analytics
• Risk assessment related to public perception, policy shifts, and geopolitical developments

The advisory role focuses on judgment, framing, and strategic clarity, helping teams pressure-test assumptions, anticipate reactions, and align messaging with long-term objectives.

This work does not include operational execution, campaign management, or tactical implementation.

Analytical approach

Analysis is grounded in:

• Historical and geopolitical context
• Behavioral and narrative dynamics shaping public opinion
• Institutional incentives, constraints, and power structures
• Ethical considerations relevant to long-term stability and legitimacy

The objective is to move decision-making away from short-term reaction and toward durable, reasoned strategy.

Principles and independence

The work is guided by a clear ordering of values, including a faith-informed moral framework and a commitment to the national interest. This orientation provides ethical grounding without partisan allegiance and supports independent analysis that resists ideological capture.

Appropriate engagements

This work is suited for:

• Political think tanks and policy institutes
• Advocacy and lobbying organizations
• Strategic communications and public affairs firms
• Media and research institutions

Requests focused on political campaigning, performative advocacy, or entertainment-oriented appearances are not a fit.

Inquiries

Speaking and advisory inquiries may be submitted through the contact page.

Please include:

• Organization or institution
• Nature and scope of the engagement
• Intended audience or stakeholders
• Timeline and objectives

Due to selectivity, responses may be limited.
