Robert Zachritz
aka "The Big Cheese"

    Robert G. Zachritz, President & Owner. Affectionately known in our family as “The Big Cheese”, Robert’s engaging, tireless, and positive personality leads the way.   

    The Garrison LLC is largely built on Robert’s 30+ years of practical experience and knowledge of life working inside the structures of government and with outside organizations to influence public policy at every level: local, state, federal, and internationally.

    He is an energetic professional with a passion for learning and liberty.  Robert is an experienced executive leader and senior non-profit and political advisor. His experience is both broad and deep, including government advocacy, public policy, government relations, political strategy, organizational management, human rights, religious freedom, and crisis communication. This experience gives him an unique perspective as an impact producer.

    Robert is an extrovert who loves working with people and is known for an unparalleled ability to build diverse coalitions for legislative successes. He is also a proud Homeschool father and saxophone player in his church orchestra. He loves God, his family, and his country with a passion to mentor younger generations on the blessings of liberty and how to preserve freedom.

 

    A little known fact about Robert: He is a romantic at heart. After meeting Rebecca on the D.C. Metro subway platform one cold January day, six months later he proposed to Rebecca on the top of the U.S. Capitol Dome on the balcony directly below the Statue of Freedom which overlooks the National Mall. That was 31 years ago. They remain happily married.

    Rebecca Daugherty Zachritz. Vice President and General Counsel. Affectionately known as the “Calm One” Rebecca is the hub of our family, keeping everything on track. Without her, we would all be lost. Seriously!

    She is now using her skills to pursue her dream of starting a media company, where much creating, storytelling, and publishing will be going on.

    Rebecca finds great joy in making things flourish. From flowers to people, her investments are self-evident.
