Keeping Our Eye On: Josh Gregory

Josh Gregory

Age:  29

Hometown:  Arlington, Texas

Education:  BA in Business Administration, Mississippi College

Current Position:  Co-owner of Frontier Strategies, LLC

Josh Gregory is the co-owner with Quinton Dickerson of Frontier Strategies, LLC, a public relations, communications, advertising and government relations firm based in Jackson. As an advertising, interactive and political consultant, Gregory is constantly working on his laptop or Blackberry and says he is dedicated to the idea of having a paperless office. “You could say that I am one of Mississippi’s most green executives,” he says.

Whether working with Frontier clients from Entergy or the Mississippi Development Authority, Gregory says that a “typical day at the office” actually happens most days away from the office. He has worked as a consultant on a number of political campaigns for almost a decade including Gregg Harper, Phil Bryant and Haley Barbour. “Without a doubt, the best days on the job are on Election Day when our candidate has more votes than the other side,” he says.

Mississippi’s best kept secret:  It’s a great place to learn to fly because of the relatively flat terrain, lack of air traffic and year-round good weather.
