Hi! My name is George Tsantrizos.

​

From 2007-2018, I spent the better part of my life working as a political advisor, often referred to as the backstage of politics. The endless hours of a non-existent schedule; the media, community and government relations; the time away from home; the multiple campaign trails; the hurrays and the boos; the compliments and criticisms; all that and much more were just part of the deal.

​

Why do it you say?

For the absolute privilege of working with individuals that ceaselessly demonstrated their profound and remarkable desire to contribute to society. 

​

Here's where I surprise you...

Many of those individuals had absolutely nothing to do with the political class. They were community organizers and leaders, businessmen and businesswomen, influencers, volunteers, inspirational men and women.

​

Here's the irony...

We depended on them as much, if not more, as they depended on us.

 

And the conversations! I think I'll miss those the most!

​

So I figured after all these years, perhaps there's a way to keep those going and share them with you all.

 

Welcome to The Backstage!

Hope you enjoy the conversations!
