Hello, my name is

Crystal Young

Founder + CEO

Politics with panache. And a voice you can trust.

I’m a lobbyist and fundraiser with over two decades of experience. Or better yet: I’m an impact engineer committed to effective, nontribal politics. My singular skillset comes from a career spanning nonprofit and elections consulting, branding, management, and creative expression. I channel my resilient background into advocacy, earning national awards and serving on dozens of boards.

Beyond my career, my family remains my anchor. I’m a devoted mom, partner, and maintain an active life filled with flamingos, classical music, exercise, flowers, philosophy, history, and wilderness.
