WASHINGTON, D.C. – August 5, 2010—The Glover Park Group announced that Alex Mistri, most recently a Strategic Analysis and Economic Officer in the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, has joined the firm as a Managing Director in its Government Affairs practice.
During his 15 month assignment in Iraq, Mistri focused on foreign investment and economic issues. He was the principal in the interagency effort to host the first U.S.-Iraq Business and Investment Conference in October 2009, bringing together over 500 multi-national and Iraqi companies.
Previously, Mistri served as Special Assistant to the President for Legislative Affairs, representing President Bush in the House of Representatives. He served as the primary point of contact in the White House for 90 members of Congress, developing, coordinating and executing White House strategy on legislative issues.
“Alex is a proven leader in public policy and international business development,” said Joel Johnson, Managing Director of The Glover Park Group’s Government Relations practice. “His capabilities and achievements throughout his career complement the growing interests of The Glover Park Group.”
Prior to his tenure in the White House, Mistri spent nine years on Capitol Hill, most notably as Chief of Staff to Rep. Bill Shuster (R-PA). He also served as Legislative Director for Rep. Robin Hayes (R-NC) where he was the principal policy advisor for work related to the Committee on Armed Services.
“A seasoned issues advocate, Alex will bring The Glover Park Group a rich mix of domestic and foreign policy experience,” said Chip Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Glover Park Group. “He will impart important and valuable perspective to the company and our clients.”
Mistri is a graduate of Appalachian State University, Boone, North Carolina with a B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies.
