Political Consulting
Clear communication starts with a sound understanding of the issues. Virginia Virtue offers political consulting led by Ethan Purita, connecting issue research, organized planning, and public-facing communications.
Ethan holds a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and Government from Virginia Tech. His background includes serving as a Campus Coordinator and Field Representative for Turning Point USA (TPUSA), where he supported 17 active college chapters across Virginia. His political experience also includes campaign outreach, canvassing, precinct leadership, and service as an Officer of Elections in Bedford County. He combines that hands-on experience with marketing, public speaking, research, and civic education to help clients communicate their priorities clearly.
Issue Research & Briefing Materials
Organize public information, examine policy questions, and develop clear summaries for discussion and planning. Projects can include background research, issue briefs, and supporting materials that distinguish evidence from opinion.
Public Communications
Develop clear explanations of priorities, positions, and proposals. Support can include reviewing public-facing copy, organizing talking points, and preparing consistent materials for websites, announcements, and public meetings.
Planning & Public Engagement
Prepare for public discussions with organized agendas, background notes, anticipated questions, and follow-up materials. The approach is tailored to the project’s goals, available resources, and timeline.
