Who We Are

Who We Are

A Team of
Present People

A Team of Transparent Thoughtful Imaginative Steadfast Kind People

At our firm, we bring together lived experience with a broad range of professional expertise across industries and issue areas.

From Yakima to Seattle, Spokane to Vancouver, we’ve organized in communities all over Washington and shaped the progressive narrative that frames the biggest challenges we face today.

Purpose

To change the way political work gets done so that our values are reflected not only in the arguments we make but also in the way we do our work.

Mission

To help our clients—right now and materially—solve complex political problems, win campaigns, and create lasting structural changes while leading important conversations that foreground Washington’s historically disenfranchised and excluded communities. 

Values

Transparency – Everyone should have access to all the information needed to collaborate and make decisions together.

Forethought – Consideration of what’s important and proactive planning for what we know will arise in the future.

Imagination – Forming new ideas and rigorous solutions grounded in political reality while reaching for new, necessary possibilities.

Kindness – Generosity of spirit that offers happiness to everyone who works at, with, or may be impacted by what we do at our firm.

Steadfastness – More than simply following through, devotion to the idea that we owe each other what it takes to make the most of what we have.

Our Team

People drive our success. DTC is staffed by a growing team of BIPOC, queer, immigrant political consultants from across the state, and how we work together is how we win.
