Megan Jones is a Hilltop partner and leads the firm’s Las Vegas office.

Jones recently returned to Hilltop after leaving to serve as Special Assistant to the President and as Vice President Kamala Harris’s Director of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs. In her role White House, she led a team that developed and executed a robust engagement strategy, creating events across the country for the Vice President, including her 2022 midterm fight for reproductive freedom and Harris’s  “Fight for Our Freedoms” 2023 college tour.

Jones got her start in political organizing over 20 years ago working with former Majority Leader Harry Reid going back to his 1998 re-election efforts and subsequently served as a senior advisor until he retired in 2016.  As a member of the team that built the legendary “Reid Machine,” Megan gained experience in all areas of campaign management from fundraising and message development, to strategic scheduling and coalition building.  To this day, the Nevada State Democratic Party infrastructure that Jones helped create serves as a model for deep political organizing across the country.

Jones has held leadership roles at every level of the ballot, serving as a senior advisor to then Senator Kamala Harris in her 2020 presidential primary campaign and as Nevada Trip Director in Obama’s 2012 election. Other historic teams she has been a part of include: senior advisor for Senator Catherine Cortez Masto election in 2016; managing Everytown’s ballot measure campaign that successfully closed the background check loophole on all gun sales; and leading state legislative efforts that led to the election of Nevada’s first African American Speaker and the first female majority legislature in the country. Committed to the values of the West, she counts as some of her most meaningful work, the management of coalitions that advocated successfully for transitioning to 100% clean energy standards and the creation of two national monuments.

Anyone who has met Jones, knows that she loves the Las Vegas community.  Her favorite place to be is on a hike in Red Rock or at a Golden Knights hockey game. She is a mom to two amazing humans and wife to Clark County Commissioner, Justin Jones.
