Strategic communications pro. CNN’s Senior Political Commentator. Harvard professor. And chicken farmer.

Kentucky’s own Scott Jennings is a founding partner of RunSwitch Public Relations, providing senior level political, communications, public affairs, media relations, and crisis communications counsel for national and international clients.

And in addition to seeing him daily on CNN, you can read his columns in papers like the LA Times and The Daily Mail.

Scott’s career has taken him across the country as part of four presidential campaigns and numerous U.S. Senate, congressional, state, and local races. He served in key political roles in both of President George W. Bush’s campaigns and in his White House, where he served as a top deputy to Karl Rove.

Scott has served in senior positions and advisory roles for many Republicans and is one of the top confidants of Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell.

Scott was born on October 26, 1977, and grew up in Dawson Springs, Kentucky before graduating from the University of Louisville. Scott is married to the former Autumn Stiff of Whitesville, Kentucky, and they have four sons: Everett, Winston, Thatcher, and Harlan.

Oh, the chickens. Scott and his family raise a growing flock in Prospect, routinely fighting off hungry hawks and delivering eggs to their friends and family.
