MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 4, 2019 — Rapp Strategies, Inc., a Minneapolis-based public affairs firm specializing in strategic communications, issue management and reputation management, announced that Quentin Misiag has joined the firm as an Assistant Account Executive.

“I’m thrilled to be joining the experienced and dedicated team at Rapp Strategies, and I am eager to work with some of the industry’s best and brightest policy minds in the communications profession,” Misiag said. “I was seeking a forward-thinking firm with a reputation for excellence, and it was immediately clear that Rapp Strategies would be a tremendous opportunity.”

Most recently, Misiag worked for the University of Iowa Office of Governmental Relations, where he helped lead digital and in-person communications between the institution and the Iowa Legislature, state agencies, and Gov.

A former Iowa reporter, he covered the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections, 2014 Iowa gubernatorial and statewide congressional races, money in politics, and local issues that pertain to the body politic, including tax incentives, school board elections, and real estate. He is a 2016 graduate of the University of Iowa, where he earned degrees in journalism/mass communication, political science, and entrepreneurial management.
