Kevin Walker

Kevin Walker is Senior Vice President at Dittus Communications.

Prior to working at Dittus Walker worked as vice president in the Washington, D.C., office of Golin/Harris International and as an executive at Weber Public Relations Worldwide.

Prior to that he worked for U.S. Republican Representative Deborah Pryce, where he "designed and implemented communication and public policy strategies on health care, tax, insurance, energy and environmental issues."

A biographical note states he "assists clients in developing strategies that overcome legislative and regulatory obstacles, protect corporate reputations and drive public opinion."

One account Walker works on at Dittus is Taser International, a company seeking to counter controversy over numerous deaths caused by its stun gun. "This is an organization that over the course of the past 10 years has been focused on manufacturing the product and growing the organization. They've arrived, but along the way there's a lot of misinformation out there," Walker told PR Week. "Balanced coverage is what we're looking for."[1]
