I am a recovering newspaper reporter and strategic communications pro with deep connections throughout Nashville’s media, business, and legal communities. In April 2024, I joined The Ingram Group, a team of problem solvers and crisis managers that helps organizations make a difference when it matters most.The Ingram Group recruits the top people in politics, government, public relations and the media, and we represent both sides of the political aisle. As a result, we’re comfortable working in many different complex situations, we understand the intricate world of decision making at all levels of government, and we use our competencies to effectively solve problems and maximize opportunities. Clients come to us for communications strategy, crisis management, organizational reviews, government relations, and general corporate strategy. The Group’s collective experience spans numerous industries and includes work for corporations in the technology, health care, tourism, energy, education, and transportation sectors, among many others. In addition to our political clients, we’ve also represented government officials and organizations, trade associations, and issue coalitions.I joined The Ingram Group after eight years with Clarivate, where I produced competitive intelligence that helped clients solve problems and successfully navigate the increasingly complex U.S. healthcare landscape. I developed, launched, and managed Clarivate’s Market Access Disease Navigator | Oncology product, which was purchased and relied upon by some of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies.A former newspaper reporter covering primarily business, politics, and the law, Brandon’s writing has been featured in publications coast-to-coast including Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The Oregonian, The Tennessean, Nashville Business Journal, Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly, New Hampshire Business Review, and more.
