Jeff Allan is the Founder & CEO of EchoRidge, putting the power of lobbyists into the hands of everyday Americans. Their key tool is Nation Crowd, a crowdfunding platform that brings people together around a common issue and translates their energy into actionable legislation.

EchoRidge connects clients to a network of retained "boots on the ground" lobbyists. They have been highlighted in recent articles for the seed funding they have generated.  

  • Jeff attended the University of North Dakota for a B.A. in Psychology and is currently pursuing a Masters of Forensic Psychology.
  • Jeff has international career experience in Singapore and Indonesia working in business development.
  • He moved to Tokyo to work for ioCubed as VP for Business Development working with tech startups.
  • He then became the Vice President of Business Strategy for Lottery.com.

“We concentrate on the business side of things and the lobbyists can concentrate on the lobbying.”

Jeff talks about his life in the tech industry, how he has created his own business, connecting small groups to lobbyists. EchoRidge has several interns every year and encourages interested individuals to apply.
