Trip spends his down time reading McSweeney's, watching baseball, and wondering when the guy next door is finally going to cut his grass. Trip and his longsuffering wife, Kristin, live on a 150 acre Alpaca ranch in Suwanee, GA.

After campaigning for over a decade, Michael Clingaman joined the Stoneridge team bringing a vast knowledge of campaign management and his own take on political messaging. His career stops along the way have taken him to the National Republican Congressional Committee where he recrutied candidates and served as a Field Representative and to the Republican Party of Kentucky where he spent an election cycle as the Executive Director. He has managed a Gubernatorial campaign and successfully managed one of the Top 5 congressional races to victory in 2002. He has even logged time at one of the top polling firms in Washington DC.

Joining Stoneridge in 2007, Michael has opened new doors and brought his own strategic perspective based from years on the campaign trail. 'Winning no matter what' is his top priority and another reason he has complimented the Stoneridge Group Team.

Michael lives in his hometown of Louisville, KY alongside his wife Beth and their two growing kids Madeline and Charlie.

Sondra Hardy serves as the Stoneridge Group's Director of Finance and Administration, which involves managing Stoneridge's financial accounts and making sure that all the trains run on time.

And Sondra holds a 5th degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, which serves her well when confronting late-paying clients.

When she's not at her desk obsessing over QuickBooks or building LEGO castles, Sondra enjoys spending time on Lake Lanier with her husband and her daughter. Sondra and her family reside in Cumming, GA.

Michael is also lead designer for Stoneridge’s annual publication, Election.

Michael spends his free time designing and scripting motivational posters and working as a freelance blogger for Cat Fancy magazine. Michael and his wife, Michelle, live in Marietta, Georgia, with their 3 Selkirk Rex cats.

Julia joined the Stoneridge Group in 2006 and immediately assumed a leadership role in designing direct mail and collateral materials for Stoneridge’s congressional and state legislative clients.

When Julia isn’t griping about the thermostat (“you guys keep it too dang cold in here”), she can be found chronicling plot holes in Nancy Drew detective novels. Julia and her husband, David, and their killer Toy Rat Terriers, Olive & Coco, live in a lean-to in Suwanee, GA.

Edgard Negron heads up Stoneridge’s rapidly expanding web design/eCampaign division. Edgard brings to Stoneridge nearly a decade of experience in corporate web-based marketing.
