Ross Gunnells is the owner and operator of Warrior Consulting Group, Inc. Prior to forming Warrior Consulting Group, Gunnells helped start and then led the Alabama government relations practice for a large regional law firm. In his role as the Senior Government Relations Advisor for that firm, his clientele included non-profit entities, statewide associations, and corporations.

Gunnells previously served as Legislative Director for Alabama Governor Robert Bentley, where he played a key role in the development and implementation of the Governor’s legislative priorities. Through his nearly four years in the Governor’s Legislative Office, he developed an intimate knowledge of the executive and legislative branches of state government, including the legislative process. The relationships he built with elected officials and state employees while serving in this role are the greatest take away from his tenure with the State of Alabama. While serving as Finance Director for Robert Bentley for Governor in 2010, Gunnells assisted in identifying, cultivating, and soliciting donations for the campaign.
