Tammy Hess – Candidate for WV House – District 91

Education:
I am a Class of 1997 graduate of Musselman High School and studied Fire Science and Criminal Justice at Shepherd Colllege/Blue Ridge CTC (now Shepherd University).
Additionally, I received numerous certifications during my volunteer service as a firefighter & emergency medical technician from West Virginia University, the National Fire Academy, US Department of Homeland Security Emergency Management Institute & FEMA, St. Petersburg College/National Terrorism Preparedness Institute, Michigan State University School of Criminal Justice, the Emergency Operations Training Academy, Lousiana State University, New Mexico Institute of Mining & Technology, US Department of Defense, & Texas A&M.
My education in real estate and photography has been obtained from Spruce School of Real Estate, the WV Association of Realtors Leadership Academy, the National Association of Realtors, and The Art Institute of Pittsburgh.

Occupation:
1. Owner of Tammy Hess LLC (Dba: Tammy Hess Photography & Media Services – 2012 to
present).
2. Real Estate Agent/Salesperson with Coldwell Banker Premier (licensed 2020 to present).

Priorities:
Working in the real estate industry, and as a small business owner, my focus, if elected, will be on
building the community’s infrastructure to meet its growing needs.
● Our highways and secondary roads have been overwhelmed with increased traffic, so evaluating potential alternatives to alleviate the bottlenecking of primary routes and intersections must be a focus.
● Our schools and teachers have been stretched to their limits, therefore expanding school choice and charter school development needs to be a priority.
● Limiting the growth of government spending and focusing on the positive growth of the business community.
● I will also continue to support the fundamentals of our Constitution and the rights it guarantees to all citizens.

Additional information:
Born and raised in the south end of Berkeley County. I have not held a publicly elected position but have assisted on numerous campaigns since 2008, which include but are not limited to Eastern Panhandle Representative for Stephen Connolly for State Treasurer, volunteer for WV House of Delegates (Larry W. Faircloth, Eric Householder, Mike Folk), and State Field Director for Tom Willis for US Senate.

I am running for WV House of Delegates in the 91st District because of the lack of effective representation during the last several terms. The area deserves to have a leader and representative that knows and understands the issues and difficulties we have are facing. I plan to be a voice to bring those issues to the forefront and address them with a common sense approach that will benefit the majority instead of only looking out for those with deep pockets.

Campaign slogan:
“Working for YOU to protect YOUR tax dollars!”
