Vermont Business Magazine Lieutenant Governor-elect John Rodgers announced today the appointment of Elizabeth Brown of Waterbury as his chief of staff.
“Elizabeth has demonstrated a strong commitment of service to Vermont and Vermonters.” Rodgers said. “A gifted team leader and trusted administrator, she brings valuable experience from the private sector to her new role, and I’m grateful for her willingness to serve Vermonters alongside me.”
Brown was a Democratic candidate for Vermont House of Representatives from Waterbury. She came up short in last summer's primary against incumbents Theresa Wood and Tom Stevens.
Professionally she has spent twenty-four years in corporate development, strategy and program execution working for financial services firms, most recently as Head of Strategy for a national bank. She excels in developing and implementing large scale integrated strategies and supporting top level executives to grow and optimize their organizations with the ability to plan, execute and deliver measurable results.
Most recently, Brown served as Chief of Public Engagement for Rodgers' campaign for lieutenant governor, in which he beat incumbent Democrat David Zuckerman. Brown is a Harwood Unified Union School District school board member and a mother to two children, ages 11 and 16. She lives in Waterbury.
