Experience
Experience Shaped by Years of Public Service.
Jeremy Faison’s perspective on state legislative strategy comes from serving inside the process. His work in the Tennessee House of Representatives, legislative leadership, and the business community informs the practical questions he brings to complex policy challenges.
Founder
Jeremy Faison began serving in the Tennessee House of Representatives in 2011, and has spent years working on legislation from the inside.
His legislative service includes leadership as Majority Caucus Chairman and committee work in areas such as government operations, finance, and commerce. That experience has given him a practical understanding of how proposals are examined, how timing and procedure shape what is possible, and how fiscal and implementation questions can change the course of an initiative.
Alongside public service, Jeremy is a small-business owner. He understands the perspective of organizations that must make careful decisions with limited time and resources.
Faison Strategies is the founder-led advisory business he established to help policy organizations translate strong ideas into realistic legislative strategy. Over his career, Jeremy has built professional relationships with state leaders around the country; those relationships inform his national perspective, and every engagement operates within applicable legal and ethical requirements.
