Behind the Scenes of Government Relations: Insights from Tucker Green

Tucker's hometown nestled in the serene beauty of North Georgia, near the majestic Appalachian Mountains. He spent a lot of time there, except for his college years when he attended the University of Georgia. Although politics wasn't a prominent topic within his family, his grandpa was a dedicated community helper and a fervent consumer of news. It was this exposure that kindled Tucker's interest in politics from a young age.

His grandpa even took him on a trip to the state Capitol once, an experience that left an indelible mark and planted the political bug firmly in Tucker's heart. During his college journey, Tucker switched his major from business to delve into the realm of political science, diving headfirst into the world of politics. His commitment went beyond academics; he even threw his hat in the ring for a seat on the school board in his home county, becoming the youngest member ever elected in the state.

While navigating the complexities of the political landscape in college, Tucker's curiosity extended to the mechanics of government affairs and the individuals who operate behind the scenes. It was during this pivotal time that a mentor reached out, providing invaluable guidance. Tucker seized the opportunity, initially working part-time as a mentor during his college years and then transitioning into a full-time role after graduation. His career trajectory eventually led him to the role of Executive Director at his very own government affairs association management firm.

Among his esteemed clientele, the Conditioned Air Association of Georgia stands out, with Tucker serving as its dedicated Executive Director. In this capacity, Tucker and his team are resolute in their mission to represent their clients in government affairs, functioning as registered lobbyists on behalf of the association. This multifaceted journey has not only defined Tucker's professional life but also shaped his enduring passion for the intricate world of politics and advocacy.
