Chris Neeley sat down with Trey Walker, Chief of Staff to Governor Henry McMaster and his longtime friend, for this week's Kids First Podcast. Walker has a wealth of experience in government relations, political consulting, agency management, and crisis communications at the state and national level. His current duties include providing counsel and advice to the Governor, handling the office's daily operations and administration, developing and executing the Governor's legislative agenda and executive budget, as well as significant policy initiatives. He also has extensive experience working with the state's executive branch, serving as deputy chief of staff to Governor Nikki Haley and as Chief Executive Assistant to McMaster during his two terms as attorney general. Politically, he has been involved in US Senator John McCain's presidential campaigns, assisting in the election of the first majorities to control both chambers of the South Carolina General Assembly as executive director of the state Republican Party and serving as a senior consultant and advisor for dozens of successful candidates running for federal, state, and local offices.
