Andrew Cullen
Political Director
Andrew Cullen is Storefront Political Media’s Political Director, leading digital strategy, paid media, and campaign infrastructure across California’s highest-stakes political campaigns. Over 12 years advising elected officials, candidates, advocacy organizations, and coalitions, Andrew has built and run the full stack behind campaigns and causes that move millions of voters — strategy, paid and earned media, digital infrastructure, data and voter-targeting systems, and coalition operations — translating complex policy and competing stakeholder interests into messages and programs that win.
His track record spans every level of California politics: digital leadership on a landmark statewide ballot measure that passed with 67% of the vote and carried every county in the state; digital direction on a competitive congressional primary campaign that went on to win the seat; and building the digital program from the ground up for a campaign for Governor of California, including policy communications, rapid-response content, paid media strategy, and campaign infrastructure. Andrew has also led multiple concurrent city council campaigns to victory, served as digital strategist for a statewide affordable-housing coalition.
Andrew’s specialty is policy communications — turning dense legislation, ballot measure language, and technical policy into public-facing messaging, backed by outside research and data, that voters and stakeholders actually understand. He has built and maintained close to 100 campaign and organization websites, conceptualized and built Storefront’s internal database of voters, donors, and influencers, and directed paid digital advertising, direct mail, and mass texting programs reaching millions of Californians. He also produces television and video advertising, having served as producer on multiple campaign TV spots.
Andrew holds a B.A. in Journalism and International Relations from San Francisco State University, where he served as Editor in Chief of the Golden Gate Xpress. He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
