Dani Casados is one of those rare employees who has been with her employer for over a decade – supporting Kelly Calkin and team with a front-row, and often driver’s seat to experience the incredible evolution of companies past to the newly relaunched Calkin Public Affairs. She first joined Townsend Calkin Tapio Public Affairs (later I Street Public Affairs) in 2015, bringing with her ten years of administrative experience in public affairs.

Session is over – congratulations! Now for a fall of rest and relaxation. Or more realistically, client government relations summits, contract renewal negotiations for 2026, and catch-up on work set aside during session.

Our firm is building our team with an incredibly strong foundation of expertise across sectors, industries, public affairs, marketing, campaigns, stakeholder engagement, PR and beyond. And no one has been more central to our client service and communications practice than Vice President Annie Hoagland.
