Matt Denner

A veteran of advocacy and political campaigns, including President Obama's Iowa team, Matt has served as a field organizer, fundraiser, and ad-hoc tech director. In 2003, he ran for a city council seat while still attending Iowa State University as an undergrad. As a former communications director, radio host, and opinion columnist, Matt is passionate about communicating for maximum impact.

Outside of organizing, Matt is an avid supporter of the arts, has canoed 83 miles of rapids on the Rio Grande, dominates his local trivia league, and is the only person he knows whom has actually slipped on a banana peel. Matt currently resides in Des Moines, Iowa.
