25 years in the rooms where reputations are made.
Eileen Cassidy Rivera has spent 25 years in the rooms where reputations are made — and protected. As a strategic communications and marketing executive, she has shaped billion-dollar brands at some of the most recognizable names in federal contracting and technology:
Before the private sector, Eileen served in the Clinton Administration at the U.S. Department of Commerce, the Small Business Administration, and the Peace Corps — giving her a working knowledge of government that most communications consultants simply don’t have.
She founded Cassidy Rivera Strategies to give organizations access to senior-level strategic thinking without the overhead of a large agency. Her clients are mission-driven and her approach is direct: understand the stakes, find the story, and deliver it with precision.
Eileen is the author of Hard Talk: Confessions of an Accidental Marketing and Communications Professional and has been named a Top 25 Communications & Marketing Executive to Watch by WashingtonExec five years running (2020–2024).
