Let's Talk

Our Founder

J. Craig Gordon

Leadership. Experience. A Stronger Georgia.

Founder J. Craig Gordon spent 20 years in the Georgia House of Representatives, serving on committees spanning health and human services, economic development, and special rules.

During his time in public service, he helped bring more than $1 billion back to Savannah and Chatham County and played a role in shaping Georgia's film tax credit. Today, he brings an understanding of government, business, and coalition building to Septet's work with clients.
