I've known Lynn for more than 10 years. She's creative, whip-smart intelligent, a strategic thinker and a multi-talent. On Charlotte City Council, she was a visionary, coalition-builder and an effective implementer in the city's successful downtown revival and in addressing urban problems. In her new company, she will bring to bear her public policy experience, wide range of contacts and abilities

"If you don't know Lynn Wheeler, you should. She might be the most connected person in Charlotte, and the most knowledgeable about how the city works. If you need PR work or consulting work in Charlotte, Lynn would be an excellent place to start."

Jeff Elder , former columnist , The Charlotte Observer

I was the city hall reporter for the Charlotte Observer for two years of Lynn's tenure on the city council. During that time I came to respect Lynn's skills as a facilitator. She had a knack for being able to bring disparate groups to the table to hold collegial conversations. In my dealings with Lynn she was always honest and forthright. I consider her to be a person of integrity."
