For 15 years, our president, Rick Osborn, has been working on intense political campaigns, branding and messaging for businesses and government agencies and advocating for legislation. That road took Rick to the Oregon State Senate, where he served as communications director for the Senate Majority. He started out as a sports writer and reporter covering big-time college football, local sports and other community topics for several years. He sure does know how to spin a yarn with the best of them. With a bachelor’s degree in English and an MBA in his portfolio, Rick brings a diverse education to the table. In his spare time, he is a political junkie who enjoys football, supporting local high school sports and tinkering on his tractor at his rescue ranch on Blue Ridge.
