Notă biografică
Matt Moseley has spent his career at the intersection of public policy, business and government and has managed many public affairs projects and campaigns for organizations and companies. He is also an author and world record adventure swimmer.
Since 2005, Moseley has been in private practice as a communications strategist and consultant for companies and organizations. He has had many high-profile clients including American Rivers, Aurora Economic Development Council, Xcel Energy, AFL-CIO, Colorado Association of Realtors, the Colorado Criminal Defense Bar and many others. Moseley was hired by Johnny Depp to be the family spokesperson and communications director for Hunter S. Thompson’s funeral and ash-blast. He also led the successful campaign to free Lisl Auman from a life sentence for felony murder. He wrote a book about the effort called, "Dear Dr. Thompson: Felony Murder, Hunter Thompson and the Last Gonzo Campaign."
Moseley served as the communications director for the Colorado Senate under President Joan Fitz-Gerald. He was a press officer for the United States Olympic Committee at the 2004 games in Athens, Greece, where he wrote numerous articles for national publications and was "Our man inside the Olympics" for The Denver Post. Other experiences include being the national field director for Rock the Vote in Los Angeles. In 1998, he served as the deputy press secretary under White House communications director Mike McCurry for the Denver Summit of the Eight (G7 Summit).
He has a master’s degree in Public Policy from the University of Colorado at Boulder. He was appointed by the Boulder City Council to the Transportation Advisory Board and is a frequent writer and spokesperson on issues for the press.
Moseley has completed three world record adventure swims. On June 11, 2014, he completed the first-ever solo swim crossing of Lake Pontchartrain, for 25 miles in 14 hours and 56 minutes, which was made into a documentary by Emmy-winning filmmaker Wayne Ewing called "Dancing in the Water." On May 28, 2015, he made the first swim crossing from the island of Culebra to Fajardo, Puerto Rico, for 24 miles in 12 hours, 1 minute, 55 seconds. In late July 2015, he did the first-ever swim through Canyonlands National Park on the Colorado River for 47.5 miles in 13 hours 56 minutes, which was acknowledged by Outside Magazine.
All of Matt’s swims benefited organizations working to protect water: Lake Pontchartrain Basin Foundation, Scuba Dogs Society in Puerto Rico and American Rivers. The swims raised thousands of dollars and received millions of media impressions for the partnering organizations. In addition Moseley was the lead for the City of Boulder Transportation Advisory Board on a 2013 ballot measure to significantly increase long-term funding. He has been a long-time advocate for juvenile justice issues with the Pendulum Foundation and the Colorado Juvenile Defender Center on many successful reforms including most recently ending Juvenile Life Without Parole. He was a finalist for the Colorado Book Award and is the recipient of the Colorado Professional Firefighters Excellence in Service Award. The World Open Water Swimming Association nominated him for the Performance of the Year for 2015.

Matt Moseley is a true communications savant. In his newest book, Moseley pulls back the curtain on all things related to communications strategy — from the philosophical paradigms on which we make decisions to the granular details of execution. Ignition offers a masterful blend of story, cultural and historical examination, as well as the research behind how we communicate as individuals, companies, and societies. This book is a must-have tool for any organizational or community leader who is dedicated to truly influencing their audience.

Ignition is the perfect field guide for strategic communications. Stronger connections are what the world needs most right now!
-- Eric Roza, CEO, Crossfit
In a moment where it feels like the world is spinning off its axis, Moseley's energetic and readable romp through the world of high-stakes communications delivers the stabilizing clarity of basic, enduring truths. Yes, we tell ourselves stories in order to live -- but we only believe storytellers we trust. You can trust Moseley to craft compelling, credible narratives because he's genuine and has never lost sight of what really matters. I hope every communications flack finds and learns from this excellent book.
-- Eli Stokols, White House Correspondent, Los Angeles Times
I believe works such as this offer something deeply worthwhile to a society that speeds by one another entirely too fast nowadays. He’s done a superb job with Ignition: Superior Communications Strategies for Creating Stronger Connections and its influence will be felt for some time to come. Its sleek presentation, point of view, and wealth of information are quite a combination.
