Tyler Craddock

Chief Advocacy Officer at NARPM

Speaker

Tyler Craddock serves as Chief Advocacy Officer at the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM). He brings more than 25 years of legislative and lobbying experience to the table, with deep expertise in issues affecting the regulation and governance of business and trade associations.

Tyler's career has spanned the government, education, business, and nonprofit sectors. He previously served as executive director of the Virginia Manufactured and Modular Housing Association, the trade association representing Virginia's factory-built housing industry, and as director of public and government affairs for the Home Building Association of Richmond. He also served as director of government affairs for the Virginia Chamber of Commerce and began his public policy career as legislative aide to former Delegate Allen W. Dudley (VA-H-09).

A member of the American Society of Association Executives, Tyler also is an adjunct instructor at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College. He holds both a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts from Virginia Tech.

A native of Henry County, Virginia, Tyler now lives in Chesterfield County, Virginia. Outside the office, he serves as Lay Leader of Hopewell Congregational Methodist Church, and he is a passionate sports fan — loyal to Virginia Tech, the Dallas Cowboys, the New Jersey Devils, and the Los Angeles Dodgers. He also freely admits to being a technology nerd and having a weakness for "schlocky TV" and a well-crafted meme.
