This new position is a recognition of the hard work and growth JB has demonstrated over his tenure with the firm, as well as the future leadership he will provide on government affairs services to clients.

Byrd has most recently served as Senior Vice President for Miller/Wenhold, where he has played a leading role in overseeing its policy team.

JB has been recognized by over 14,000 of his peers as one of the top in the profession.

Byrd now takes charge of a growing policy team, where he will chart the firm’s future growth and service delivery.

“JB is an amazing professional who is the right person at the right time to take charge of our firm’s growth and path forward,” stated Paul Miller, partner with Miller/Wenhold. “I for one am excited to work under his leadership and watch as he takes this step and see where it takes MW,” added Miller.

We look forward to his leadership to continue the growth of our firm and effective service to our clients.”
