Brownstein Hyatt picks up House Budget staffer

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on May 21, 2021

Plenty of congressional staffers end up on K Street. But for Adam Steinmetz, the journey was anything but conventional.

Adam Steinmetz began his career by earning a PhD in psychology from the University of Iowa, where he focused on the effects of marijuana use on learning and brain plasticity. After a post-doctoral fellowship, a job with the National Institute on Aging later brought Steinmetz to the D.C. area.

He moved to the House Budget Committee a year later and had worked as a GOP policy adviser until this month, when he joined Brownstein Hyatt as a policy adviser. Brownstein Hyatt is Washington's second biggest lobbying firm by disclosed lobbying income.
