There are some people who make a lasting impact everywhere they go and Alison Vann is one of them.

I’m incredibly proud to see Alison recognized as part of Little Rock Soirée’s 2026 Class of Women to Watch Little Rock Soirée magazine. Her leadership, professionalism, creativity, and commitment to our clients are a huge part of what makes Anchor Strategies what it is today.

This honor is so deserved, and I’m grateful to work beside her every day.

Congratulations, Alison. ❤️

Proud to support the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance at last night’s Serving Up Solutions dinner alongside ARANA, the Arkansas Association of Nurse Anesthetists, a proud event sponsor.

The Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance works to reduce food insecurity across Arkansas through partnerships with food banks, schools, and community organizations serving families statewide.

Thank you to the event chairs, legislative co-chairs, sponsors, chefs, volunteers, and Arkansas legislators who made the evening such a success.

We are always proud to work alongside organizations making a real impact in our communities.

Such a fun night at the 2026 Home Runs for Kids’ Sake game supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arkansas and the Children’s Advocacy Centers of Arkansas.

Loved seeing members of the Arkansas House, Senate, Governor’s Office and Attorney General’s Office come together for such an important cause. The new softball format made for an unforgettable night full of laughs, friendly competition, and community.

So grateful to everyone who helped make this event possible and continues to pour into Arkansas children and families every single day.

Anchor Strategies is proud to support organizations and events that make a lasting impact across Arkansas.

In preparation for bitterly cold temperatures, our friends at ADEM have developed an interactive map with a list of warming shelters across the state. Here's a link for quick access:

Back at the Capitol with the next generation of engineering emerging leaders, about 16 engineers present and fully engaged in the discussion.

For many years, I’ve had the privilege of walking engineers, who are also valued clients, through the legislative and lobbying process so they can better engage in the work that shapes their profession.

Smart policy starts with informed leadership.
