Nethercott will focus on media relations and act as a primary contact for press inquiries related to the committee. She will also manage written materials and collaborate closely with Schneider to support Chairman Hill's priorities.
Schneider brings experience from his recent position at Business Roundtable as Director of Communications. His background includes over a decade in federal government roles such as Vice President of Communications at the Export-Import Bank of the United States and various positions within congressional committees.
Nethercott has been working with Chairman Hill since November 2022 in her capacity as Communications Director. Her previous roles include Senior Consultant in Strategic Communications at FTI Consulting and work in digital media for WebMD and Pandora Music.
Chairman Hill expressed confidence in their capabilities: "Dan and Brooke have been my trusted advisors and top communications strategists during my tenure in Congress. Dan’s extensive communications experience in federal government, paired with Brooke’s outstanding media relations background, brings invaluable expertise to the Committee."
