Clay Neal -- Small Business Project Manager

Clay NealClay is an extremely proud, fifth-generation Oregonian. Building off of a family history in the small business community in Portland, he pursued a university degree that embodied the Portlandian "three-lives" ethic. During his undergraduate tenure at Boston University, Clay simultaneously studied international economic systems and trends, environmental philosophy and stewardship, and performance art.

Clay's international and educational experiences ultimately propelled him home to work on the overarching development of his favorite city. He was compelled to apply for a position in Commissioner Adams's office by a desire to be involved with organizations that are at the forefront of shaping the future of Portland per the needs of citizens as well as local and global environments and economies. In his six months of working as a Staff Associate supporting senior policy staff, he gained extensive experience in policy-making, negotiated relationships between parties in the public and private sector, and became comfortable with the inner workings of City Hall.

In August, 2008, Clay accepted the position of Small Business Project Manager. Working closely with the Small Business Advisory Council, he is extremely motivated to represent the small business community with a cohesive voice in City Hall. Contact him with concerns or queries relating to policies that you feel directly or indirectly affect small business and economic development in Portland.
