David All

President

David All is the Internet. And he believes you are too.

The shift of the World Wide Web to a place where real people spend a majority of their time persuaded David to start The David All Group, LLC (davidallgroup.com) in January 2007. At DAG, David works with a small team of highly-skilled web strategists and conversation engineers who collaborate with a select group of clients to help them communicate smarter and better amplify their message. DAG's diverse set of valued clients range from blue chip companies, to the Right kind of non-profits, to a limited set of Republican political organizations and candidates.

David is the co-founder of Slatecard.com, called a "Facebook for Republican candidates" by Wired which is a utility to empower Republican grassroots activists. In 2007, he started TechRepublican.com, a group blog focusing like a laser on the intersection of Republican politics and technology which in April 2009 was awarded the Golden Dot Award for the Best Blog in National Politics.

When David grows up, he would like to be the mayor of the greatest city in America: Columbus, Ohio. Until then, he's pretty content helping his French Bulldog, Jackson, overcome obstacles.

David was humbled to be named a Rising Star by Politics Magazine in June 2008 for his past and present efforts pushing and pulling Republicans to the modern world. In October 2008, he was honored to be named one of the "Top 10 Who Are Changing the World of Internet and Politics" by PoliticsOnline and the World e-democracy Forum in Paris, France.

To that end, he served as communications director for Congressman Jack Kingston (R-GA), the vice-chairman of the House Republican Conference, from 2004 to 2006. There he helped position Kingston as the "king of the blogosphere" on Capitol Hill; Kingston won the 2007 Golden Dot People's Choice Award for being the 2006 Online Politician of the Year. He has also been a speechwriter for a U.S. Senator, a communications director for a Senate race, a campaign manager for a heated Congressional race, and a lifeguard.

David will tell you that Republican political genius Lee Atwater is his political hero and that he was most inspired by Howard Dean's campaign manager, Joe Trippi, who got this whole people-powered Revolution started. He believes that the Internet will save politics (from itself) and, if he could have one wish granted, it would be to provide free high-speed Internet to everyone in the world.

He lives in downtown Washington, DC where he's often seen walking his dog or taking pictures with his Nikon D300 of friends, family, animals, buildings, and neat looking people that he meets along the way. You can follow David on Twitter (@DavidAll) or shoot him an email.

Chris Perrin

Managing Director

Chris is the Managing Director of the David All Group. As the Managing Director Chris leads the effort to ensure the smooth execution of all day to day internal operations of the company and the implementation of high quality client projects by the crack DAG team of account managers and executives.

Chris works with the DAG team to make sure that clients are satisfied with the products and services we produce. This is accomplished by creating an environment where the DAG team can be creative and productive.

Prior to DAG, Chris worked as the COO of Adfero Group where he ran the day to day operations of the firm. Before that Chris was a Special Assistant at the Small Business Administration’s Office of Advocacy. He has served as a Vice President at the J.C. Watts Companies and as the Director of Operations for the House Republican Conference under Chairman J.C. Watts, Jr.

Originally from Pittsburgh, Chris is a life-long Steelers fan. He currently lives in Falls Church, Virginia, with his wife, Laura, and son, Jonathan.

Joe Mansour

Account Manager

Joe Mansour works at DAG as the Account Manager, but when Joe is not working with his team to help clients use the Internet effectively, he tries to master Guitar Hero. Joe speaks regularly on how organizations and campaigns can effectively use social networking sites to communicate and reach their supporters online.

Before coming to DAG, Joe worked on Mike Bouchard's 2006 U.S. Senate campaign. On the campaign trail, Joe was involved in every aspect of the communications operation, and managed the campaign's presence on social networking sites. He is officially the person to blame for pushing David onto Facebook.

Joe is a graduate of Kalamazoo College, where he studied international relations and Chinese. He led his school's College Republican chapter, working to elect Republicans at the presidential, state, and local levels. As a member of student government he worked to improve the college's use of technology by placing Wi-Fi hotspots across campus.

In the future Joe hopes to open up DAGs China office so he can actually put his Chinese degree into practice. But for now Joe lives in Washington, DC where in his free time he is attempting to become more cultured by attending Shakespearean Theater; so far he's failing miserably.

When he’s not in the office, you'll likely find Ethan playing Wii or trying to cook something off of the Food Network (both somewhat successfully).

Prior to joining the DAG team, Ethan was the Executive Director for the College Republican National Committee, involved in all aspects of the national organization which includes more than 250,000 students on more than 1,800 college campuses.

At the CRNC, he honed the CRs programming toward metric-oriented success and blending online and real time activism.

Katie Osgood

Account Executive

Katie Osgood is an Account Executive and a Midwest transplant from Cincinnati, Ohio. Katie claims to have been born a Reagan Republican and considers her parents the most influential members of the Grand Old Party. Alongside her Mom and Dad, Katie worked on President Bush's re-election campaign.

A 2004 graduate from Miami University of Ohio, Katie was a Mass Communications major with minor studies in Political Science and Spanish. She was a member of many on-campus groups, including the College Republicans in which she volunteered on Congressman John Boehner's campaign. Katie also co-hosted a weekly alternative-rock radio show with her good friend Lauren, which was broadcast live on the Internet and named one of the top ten campus radio shows by radiotime.com.

While at Miami, Katie was an intern for ESPN, lived in a house with 8 girls, and studied in London, England where she created an international advertising campaign for Frito Lay. Once you know Katie, it is clear she would offer her right arm to go back to college. (Fortunately for DAG, that's not an option.)

After graduation, Katie moved to Charleston, South Carolina where she worked for Elizabeth Lyle Gallery, CBS and FOX News. From 2006-2008 Katie lived in Lanikai, Hawaii where she served as Chief of Staff for Representative Corinne Ching (R-27). When she was able to break away from the Capitol and campaigning, Katie enjoyed Hawaii life by surfing, island-hopping, beach parties and watching NFL games at 7:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings.

Katie loves media, politics, pop culture, communications and the internet, and is pleased that her job includes them all. When not glued to the Internet, Katie is glued to the tube watching the "news" or Project Runway. She also enjoys planning her Spring 2009 wedding, traveling, and spending time with family, friends, and Hans. She lives in downtown Annapolis, Maryland.

 

Katie's short-term goal is to meet the President. Please contact her if you can make that possible.

Previously, Heath worked for the White House; first in the Office of Strategic Initiatives and then in the Office of Presidential Correspondence. He also interned for Congressman Louie Gohmert (TX-01).

A native Texan, Heath never stops trying to convince people that Dallas is the greatest city in the world. Before moving to Washington, D.C., Heath managed the successful reelection campaign of Chickasaw Tribal Legislator Beth Alexander.

As a classically trained actor, Heath has had the honor of performing many roles in different parts of the world, including the West End in London. His favorite role? Dracula!

Heath has three siblings and enjoys spending time with his family in Texas as often as he can. He also enjoys coffee, movies, travel, and plotting his future run for Smith County Commissioner in his hometown of Tyler, Texas.

Heath holds a B.A. from Thomas Edison State College and completed the Native American Political Leadership Program at George Washington University. He eventually plans to attend graduate school for a Masters degree in Public Policy.

One day, Heath wants to write a book chronicling his bizarre life.
