John comes to Reservoir Communications Group with a range of experiences in clinical health care, health policy, and strategic communications.

John discovered his passion for making a difference in the health care landscape one patient at a time while working as an emergency medical technician (EMT). Most recently, he worked as an intern at Reservoir, supporting clients’ advocacy and communications efforts before joining the firm full-time. As an undergraduate, John represented his home state of Connecticut on Capitol Hill as part of a national delegation of emergency medical services professionals advocating for a stronger prehospital health care system. John also interned at a legislative affairs firm, where he gained valuable exposure to the policy environments surrounding rare disease therapies, prescription drug coverage, and the accessibility of mental health care. From these experiences, he has come to appreciate the power of distilling complex health policy issues into clear, compelling narratives.

John graduated summa cum laude from American University with a B.A. in Communications, Legal Institutions, Economics and Government.
