About Us

Matthew Beck

Matthew Beck is a self-made communications strategist known for flipping narratives, keeping bad actors out of local government, and shaping races others wrote off. A former Communications Director for the Alaska Democratic Party and the author behind the hard-hitting Blue Alaskan political blog, Beck’s work pulled off a state senate primary upset in a longtime conservative stronghold, proving that a seat long abandoned by political operatives was winnable. He has built numerous successful school board campaigns that punched well above their weight, yielding some of the widest margins in one-on-one matchups in over a decade. Most recently, he elected progressive candidate Yarrow Silvers to the Anchorage Assembly, securing a win in a three-way race for East Anchorage’s open seat.

Jeanne Devon

Jeanne Devon brings national reach, razor-sharp instincts, and a political sixth sense that’s hard to teach. A New York Times bestselling political author and founder of the iconic Mudflats blog, Jeanne has helped define progressive political commentary in Alaska since the Palin era. Her voice has been a constant presence in Alaska’s political discourse, cutting through chaos and championing accountability.

She served as Press Secretary for the Alaska Senate Democrats in Juneau, and like Beck, Devon also served as Communications Director for the Alaska Democratic Party. There, she brought message discipline to a statewide operation and helped sharpen the contrast between candidates and the far-right forces trying to hijack the narrative. Whether crafting rapid response, building a campaign brand, or shaping a long game for movement-building, Jeanne brings unmatched clarity and proven political acumen to the table.
