Washington – The Computer & Communications Industry Association is pleased to welcome new staffers to its Washington DC office including Vice President for Federal Affairs Josh Rogin, Policy Counsel Alvaro Marañon, Patrick Hills as Creative Director and State Policy Manager Jordan Rodell.

Rogin most recently served as chief of staff to Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Fla., where he helped shape policy positions on intellectual property, technology and trade issues.

Hills will handle all aspects of CCIA’s brand and visual messaging across multiple platforms. He previously was Creative & Design Director at Internet Association.

Jordan came to CCIA from Stateside Associates where she was a Legislative Issue Manager working cross-functionally, providing analysis to both their political team and the budget and fiscal issues team focusing on state policy trends ranging from cybersecurity to economic development, and healthcare to data privacy.

In addition to these new hires in its Washington office, CCIA Europe has promoted Christian Borggreen, the head of its Brussels office, to Senior Vice President and Maria Teresa Stecher to Policy Advisor.
