Sam D. Johnson brings more than six years of experience in Texas state government, legislative strategy, and stakeholder engagement. He began his career in the Texas Capitol in support and committee roles, including with the Texas House Appropriations Committee and the Texas House Sergeant-at-Arms Office, before advancing into senior policy positions.

Sam has served members in both chambers of the Texas Legislature, most recently as Legislative Director to State Representative Katrina Pierson. In that role, he directed the office’s legislative agenda, bill strategy, and stakeholder coordination, while also providing in-depth policy analysis and engagement on public health issues before the House Public Health Committee.

His prior experience includes serving as a Policy Analyst for Texas Senator Brian Birdwell and the Texas House Republican Caucus, as well as a Legislative Fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, where he specialized in workforce development, education policy, and fiscal analysis.

In addition to his legislative work, Sam has managed multiple state representative campaigns, leading grassroots operations, volunteer coordination, and strategic communications. This blend of policy expertise and political campaign leadership gives him a unique ability to align client priorities with actionable legislative outcomes.

A fifth-generation Austin native, Sam is a lifelong Texas Longhorns fan who rarely misses a
game. Away from the Capitol, he enjoys following Texas sports, spending time with family and friends, and exploring the outdoors with his golden retriever, Lola.
