Luke MarchantHill+Knowlton Strategies has added Luke Marchant, veteran political campaign and public affairs expert, to its Dallas public affairs practice as vice president.
Marchant began his career with U.S. Sen. John Cornyn and has worked on campaigns for U.S. Rep Peter Olson and U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio. Most recently he focused on messaging for political campaigns and corporations while at Mammoth Marketing Group.
“Luke’s expertise in how to navigate the current political and regulatory environment is the type of specialization that our clients are looking for,” said Marvin Singleton, executive vice president and GM of H+K’s Dallas office.
Marchant will leverage 15 years of what he described as “working in the trenches of political warfare and the halls of public policy.”
