Matthew Resch, leader of Resch Strategies, began his communications and public relations career in the Michigan governor's office, serving as Deputy Communications Director for Governor John Engler and Press Secretary to Lt. Governor Dick Posthumus. Since leaving that role at the end of the Engler Administration, Resch has directed public and media relations efforts on behalf of two state Speakers of the House, a fortune 30 company, a state legislative caucus, a statewide ballot effort and a presidential campaign.

From 2003 to 2004, Resch served as spokesman for Michigan's Speaker of the House. In 2004, he directed the public affairs communications effort for AT&T (then SBC) Michigan. Resch returned to the Michigan Legislature in 2005 with an offer from the newly-elected Speaker of the House to head the communications and media relations operation for the majority caucus, a role he held until the fall of 2007 when he joined the Sterling Corporation, a public relations and political consulting firm. As vice-president of the Sterling Corporation, he managed a diverse portfolio of clients representing corporate America, legislative advocacy initiatives, professional associations, non-profit organizations and political campaigns.

In 2009, Resch Strategies was founded.

Resch was raised in Fort Wayne, IN, and now lives in Lansing, MI, with his wife Brenda and young son Owen. He is a graduate of Hillsdale College.
