Brianna Westbrook’s life is a testament to resilience, determination, and impactful leadership. Growing up in poverty and enduring the challenges of substance abuse and domestic violence in her family, Brianna found strength in the values instilled by her great-grandparents, who raised her on their apple orchard. With no parental support, she graduated from high school and built a life defined by perseverance.
As a young parent, Brianna returned to Arizona to provide for her siblings, working blue-collar jobs to keep her family afloat. Her advocacy began in 2013 when she testified before the Phoenix City Council in support of LGBTQ+ protections in housing. In 2018, she ran for Arizona’s 8th Congressional District as a Justice Democrat-endorsed candidate, achieving 40% of the vote despite being massively outspent, showcasing her ability to mobilize grassroots movements.
Today, Brianna is a Democratic political consultant who has successfully advised outspoken progressive candidates, helping them secure victories at the municipal, state, and federal levels.
Brianna’s leadership has been recognized across Arizona. Reelected as Vice-Chair of the Arizona Democratic Party in 2023, she has played a key role in advancing progressive policies and expanding Democratic power in the state. She also served as a national surrogate for Senator Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign and worked to help secure Arizona’s electoral votes for President Joe Biden in 2020.
In response to Arizona’s housing crisis, Brianna co-founded a nonprofit dedicated to advocating for safe, affordable, and accessible housing. Her work has driven transparency and accountability in local and state governance, always prioritizing the needs of working families and marginalized communities.
From blue-collar beginnings to national influence, Brianna Westbrook remains steadfast in her fight for justice, equity, and opportunity for all Arizonans. Her story is a powerful example of how passion and persistence can create meaningful change.
