We don’t miss an opportunity to gather our friends, so when our newest VP Sallie A. Poggi joined the firm, we knew we wanted to raise a glass together to celebrate. 🎉

Friends of the firm and members of Sallie’s own community came together for the evening. It was a reminder that community works both ways: we love welcoming people in, and the people who join us make it richer.

🥂 Here’s to new relationships, familiar faces, and the community that makes Sacramento (and LPA) our favorite place to live and work. 🙌

There’s something special about sharing a meal together to celebrate the region we call home. 🌉

Cassandra, Travis and Sallie joined clients and friends of the firm at this year’s annual Tower Bridge Dinner to celebrate the bounty, growth and community that make Sacramento our favorite place to live and work.

We are grateful for the relationships that connect us to this region and for another memorable evening around the table.

And that’s a wrap on August for team LPA!

From building client relationships, to supporting the run up to the end of the session, to showing up for the causes we care about, August was full of it: 🤝 new relationships, 🏛️ client support, and 🎉 team celebrations along the way. It’s what reminds us why we love the work, and the people we do it with.

Work hard, play hard: Team LPA hit the ballpark! ⚾

We swapped briefing decks for ballpark seats this week, heading out to support our client, the Athletics, for a night game. 🎉 There’s nothing like getting the whole team together in one row (green and gold included) to remember why we love who we work with, and who we work for.

From the boardroom to game day, this is what partnership looks like at LPA. 🙌

Women’s Equality Day, at LPA, isn’t a single day. 💪

We’re a women-led firm, and our team is majority women — from the strategists to the leaders setting the vision for where the firm goes next. Raising each other up is one of our oldest philosophies, and it’s not something we save for August.

That’s the kind of equality we believe in. Not a headline, but a habit. 🎉

The end of session always reminds our own Niesha Fritz of a NASCAR race — the speed, the intensity, the bump-and-runs that move an opponent out of position. 🏁

After six years working in Capitol leadership, Niesha knows this pressure well. In her latest piece, “The Final Lap,” she walks through what’s still on the track as California’s legislature races toward the August 31 deadline — from wildfire liability to online privacy protections for kids — and the 200+ bills that didn’t make it out of Appropriations.

But the piece isn’t really about the bills. It’s about the pit crew: the lobbyists, analysts and comms pros who get each other across the finish line, win or lose.

No matter where your career takes you — government, journalism, sports — strong communication skills open doors. That was the theme of this year’s LPA Capitol Connections. 🏛️

Our apprentice team hosted an all-star panel of communications leaders: Izzy Gardon (Office of Governor Newsom), Shannon Malone Mazibuko (Sacramento Kings) and Eytan Wallace (Nexstar Media Group), who shared hard-won lessons on showing up, building trust and finding mentors in unexpected places.

Huge thanks to our panelists, and to our apprentice team, Sabrina, Avery and Acsah, for planning an event that keeps inspiring Sacramento’s next generation of communicators. 🙌
