Founder & President
Sean P Murphy started SPM Strategies in 2014 after graduating from the George Washington University’s MBA program. Trained in digital marketing and data analytics, Sean Murphy is a veteran of several high profile political campaigns and has business experience working inside some of the largest and most successful companies in the world.
Originally a Chicagoland native and graduate of DePaul University, Sean P. Murphy began his career working on Capitol Hill for Congresswoman Judy Biggert of the 13th district in Illinois and, soon thereafter, U.S. Senator Christopher S. Bond of Missouri.
In 2004, Sean was recruited by the White House to lead the President’s reelection efforts in Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri. There, Sean spent seven months organizing and commanding a multi-tiered and self-sustaining grassroots effort that eventually steered a seven-point margin of victory and touched over 5 million voters in the final 72 hours.
After the campaign, Sean was twice appointed by the White House to serve in the United States Departments of Justice (2005) and Homeland Security (2007) where he focused on policy, communications and congressional relations.
Upon leaving the Administration in 2009, Sean moved back home to Chicago to work on several statewide political campaigns before ultimately returning to Washington, D.C. to concentrate on building SPM Strategies, LLC into an emerging leader in the digital marketing space.
Currently, Sean lives with his wife Lindsay and their four children in Arlington, Virginia.
