Lincoln Shurtz

Owner and Principal Consultant

Lincoln Shurtz has over two decades of experience advancing client priorities in both the public and private sectors. 

Before starting Legislative Insight Consulting, Lincoln served for four years in active military service in the US Army as a tank commander. 

The skills and political acumen he developed leading a platoon helped shape his career path, eventually leading him to the Utah League of Cities and Towns, where he became Director of Government Relations.

A bipartisan approach is part of what sets Legislative Insight apart from the rest. Relationships built on trust and experience provide more than partisan rhetoric.

Lincoln serves and has served on many boards, including EDCUtah, the Governor’s Committee on Accountability and Government Efficiency, Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development, and the Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah. 

Lincoln received degrees in Political Science and Economics from the University of Utah, where he is a lecturer in the MPA program. When not working, he can be found heliskiing in Utah and Canada and spending time with his family.
