Our Story
Campoamor & Sons is rooted in family – the great connector. Whether it be people, places, events, or circumstances, family is what connects the past to the present and ultimately the present to our future. That’s certainly the case for Campoamor & Sons and it’s central to why fighting for the underdog is our family business.
Founder Jesse Campoamor, a veteran political operative, comes from a long line of New Yorkers who fought for those in need. From Campoamor’s grandfather, David L. Smith, becoming a leading figure in the city’s affordable housing and social justice movements to his mother, Karen Smith, serving as a New York State Supreme Court justice, the ethos and values of Campoamor & Sons are grounded in its founder’s identity, roots, and connections to New York and in the belief that we all do better when we’re in it together.
A creative, mission-driven Latino-owned consulting firm fueled by a passion for social justice and creating economic opportunity for historically excluded communities, Campoamor & Sons ensures that those who want to do good can do good with the help of strategic counsel in government relations, political advocacy, public relations, stakeholder engagement, and business development. Campoamor & Sons brings what’s best about New York – the great diversity of its people and neighborhoods – and intertwines it with more than a decade of experience in state and city government to help you accomplish the goals you set out to achieve.
Jesse Campoamor has facilitated legislative processes as complicated as authoring and shepherding the state’s landmark MRTA (Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act) through to approval to leading the Governor’s COVID-19 Vaccine Equity Task Force at the height of the pandemic. Whether it be navigating the state’s byzantine laws governing cannabis licensing or land use, marketing your healthcare or tech startup, or getting your public policy issue or candidate the attention and results deserved, Campoamor & Sons is the one-stop-shop with the relationships, drive, and know-how needed to make your mark on the future of the Empire State – a future in which equity and opportunity become the reality for all New Yorkers.
