Bryan Hickman
Producing high-quality content for corporations, trade associations, think tanks, and government relations firms
I'm a freelance writer, ghostwriter, and communications consultant with an extensive background in law and public policy. I also write original articles covering a wide range of topics, including politics, popular culture, writing strategies, and family life.
​
My work experience includes nearly 14 years as a staffer in the U.S. Senate, including multi-year stints on the Senate Finance and Judiciary Committees. For nearly a decade, I was a lead speechwriter, op-ed writer, and communications staffer for Senator Orrin Hatch. My work has appeared in various publications, including The Washington Post, Sports Illustrated, USA Today, and Forbes.
​
I have a J.D. from The George Washington University Law School and B.S. and M.S. degrees in political science from Utah State University. ​
