Ryan Mann has spent nearly two decades at the intersection of government, politics, and policy—advising elected officials, shaping legislative strategy, and helping organizations navigate complex public affairs challenges. His career spans presidential and congressional campaigns, senior roles on Capitol Hill and in city government, state elections administration, and private legal practice at a global law firm.

​

Ryan founded Headwind Strategies to offer the kind of counsel that's hard to find: direct, experienced, and genuinely invested in each client's success. He works as a trusted advisor rather than a vendor—someone in your corner when the stakes are high, the politics are complicated, or the path forward isn't obvious.
