Josh Schoenblatt

Senior Media Planner / Political Strategist

Politics has been a fascination of mine since a young age. I remember as an elementary student being excited to watch the Nightly News with Brian Williams on NBC. Hearing the stories of the day and watching our elected officials talk eloquently to those events left me enchanted. I wanted to be a part of it, but I didn’t know how.

After graduating from Drake University with a degree in Political Science, I jumped into the world of Business to Consumer advertising. Since my first day on the job, I’ve learned the tricks of the trade and how a little finesse can go a long way. But with each step I took, I never let politics leave my side. I’ve kept tabs on political campaigns to use it to the benefit of my corporate clients. 

But now the tides are changing. It’s time campaigns took a page out of my book.
