PRESS RELEASE: Alaska Policy Forum Elects Ray Kreig Board President

Anchorage, Alaska (June 9, 2025) – Alaska Policy Forum (APF) has elected Ray Kreig as the President of the Board of Directors.

Kreig was a co-founder of Alaska Policy Forum in 2009. A civil engineer, he also brings a wealth of expertise in public lands, labor unions, energy policy and performance benchmarking to the board. Kreig is President of R.A. Kreig & Associates, an Alaskan consulting firm formed in 1975. Kreig is also a former president of the Chugach Electric Association Board of Directors.

“I am excited to lead Alaska Policy Forum into a new chapter, as we have an ambitious program in the works,” said Kreig. “I believe Alaska needs a think tank dedicated to maximizing individual opportunities and freedom — now more than ever. As Alaska elects a new Governor in 2026, we look forward to providing research and data around important policy issues like taxes, education, and health care with the help of national partners like the State Policy Network.”
