The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) added Michele Stanley, a surface transportation lobbyist and former Capitol Hill staffer, and Andrew McConnell, digital specialist, to its team.
Stanley previously worked for two years with the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA). Prior to NAPA, she spent more than eight years on Capitol Hill, where she served more than six years as a legislative assistant and scheduler for Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) and two years as scheduler and personal assistant for Rep. Jim Nussle (R-Iowa).
“Michele’s past experience applies directly to the aggregates industry’s top issue: finding a long-term solution to the highway trust fund,” says Mike Johnson, NSSGA president and CEO. “NSSGA is fortunate to find someone with Michele’s experience as she is already making an impact on Capitol Hill on behalf of the entire aggregates industry.”
As digital communicator, McConnell will be responsible for the association’s website, social media and other online publications. He gained experience on Capitol Hill working with the office of Rep. Peter Sessions (R-Texas), as well as with the National Congressional Campaign Committee and National Automobile Dealers Association.
