ARLINGTON, VA, January 14, 2014 – Dunn Associates today is pleased to announce that Amie Adams has been named the company’s next President, effective February 1, 2015.
Dunn Associates is a consulting firm that pioneered and has
earned a national reputation for developing successful political action committee (PAC) and grassroots lobbying programs for major corporations and trade and professional associations.
Amie Adams joined Dunn Associates in August 2005 and most
recently served as Senior Vice President. During her tenure,
she has expanded the breadth of the firm’s client base and enhanced the depth and scope of the research, consulting and communications services it offers. As President, Adams’ first priority will be to continue to build Dunn Associates by leveraging its strong reputation while ensuring the firm continues to deliver solid results for its clients.
“Amie has an incredible understanding of our clients’ needs and how to bring strategic and fresh solutions to the table,” said Michael Dunn, Founder and Chairman & CEO. “Just as importantly, she has the ability to also turn good ideas into workable solutions that drive results.

It is gratifying to have my colleague and friend succeed me as President.”
