Today we honor the memory of our beloved Lee Cerrell. Lee was not only a pioneering political consultant and campaign advisor, but an incredible mentor, friend, and mom to those at Cerrell and in her community. She was a changemaker, undoubtedly setting the stage for future generations of women in politics. We often say she’s one of the reasons we reference ourselves as a Cerrell family—and we’re proud to have been able to continue this tradition. Here’s to you Lee.
