Bird’s Eye Consulting

Focused Vision,
Empowered Mission


Today too many American institutions, from corporations to elected officials, have substituted their core values for the zero-sum game of appealing to the far end of either side of the political spectrum, losing their identity, core mission, message, and public trust in the process.

At Bird’s Eye Consulting, we specialize in helping clients who want to get back to their core mission and values, recapturing lost demographics, building back trust, and expanding market share by simply going back to the basics: Who they are, what they do, and what they believe.

Your audience is starving for honest, straightforward communications – without a political agenda attached.

About Our Founder & President


Carly Atchison Bird is a fearless communications professional with experience at the highest levels of government and politics.

A native Virginian, Bird graduated from American University in Washington, D.C. before going to work on Capitol Hill. After working for members from Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Minnesota, Bird went to the National Republican Congressional Committee where she advised dozens of campaigns across the country, including in the swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin.

In 2020, Bird fled Washington’s lockdown mandates for Oklahoma to serve as Governor Kevin Stitt’s Communications Director and Senior Advisor, gaining invaluable experience in state government as the governor’s most trusted communications and political advisor. Notably, Bird successfully led the national messaging campaign in Oklahoma’s legal battles to protect the state’s sovereignty, culminating in a victorious ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court in Oklahoma v. Castro-Huerta.

Bird most recently served as the national spokeswoman for Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign, appearing on national television to share DeSantis’ pro-freedom message with America. She was also responsible for crafting custom messaging strategy in the early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.

Bird continues to offer political analysis on cable news networks and radio talk shows, while also publishing written editorials.

She lives in Virginia Beach with her husband, Eric, and their two rescue dogs, Sergeant and Riggins.

“Carly is smart, competent, and aggressive. But her best quality is her competitiveness. She is a great teammate who will do whatever it takes to win – and she hates losing. Give her your objective and let her creative juices help your organization achieve your goal.”

– Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt

“When my business intersects with the public realm, it’s critical for me to understand public perceptions and how to communicate with those stakeholders. I trust Carly Bird’s judgment, expertise and commitment to winning. I am confident that, whether in the normal course of business or in a crisis, she will guide me confidently and skillfully.”
