Sue Zoldak is interviewed by MIT Tech Review

In an interview with MIT Tech Review’s Andrew Zaleski about the software and services company Fiscal Note, Sue Zoldak explains how her firm uses the revolutionary product for her clients.

“Lately Zoldak’s been getting help from a new source—a data intelligence platform called FiscalNote, founded by a 26-year-old political whiz, Tim Hwang,” says Zaleski. Tim has also been a guest speaker in Sue’s graduate class at George Washington University’s Graduate School of Political Management.

As Zaleski writes:

Put simply, she’s a go-to person for companies and organizations determined to shape public policy.

“Sue Zoldak is a public relations expert with a fierce competitive streak. Her surname in Slovak, as she likes to point out, means “mercenary.” Her firm, the Zoldak Agency, uses targeted advertising and grassroots campaigning to help clients spur voters to press elected officials into voting yes or no on specific bills. While not strictly a lobbyist—she doesn’t communicate directly with lawmakers—Zoldak fits squarely into the influence-peddling milieu of Washington, DC, with 15 years’ experience on K Street, where lobbying firms are traditionally headquartered. Put simply, she’s a go-to person for companies and organizations determined to shape public policy.”
