Proven Leadership for a Port in a Storm
The coming years are likely to be challenging for most US Ports. For the Port of Olympia to successfully navigate these expected rough seas, it needs leaders with relevant experience on the Port Commission.
The Port of Olympia is a government that focuses on economic development, through its marine terminal, marina, airport and real estate holdings.
Hemstad volunteers as Economic Development Committee Chairman for the Port of Olympia’s Citizen Advisory Commission.
Professionally, Hemstad currently runs his own successful economic development and public policy consultancy, working with local governments and private enterprises. He has deep experience in international business and, as former head of the area's World Trade Center office, has successfully helped build trade and bring major investments into Washington state.
As your next Port Commissioner, he will work with community partners to diversify the economy, bringing family-wage jobs to Thurston County while protecting our environment.
Join us as we work together to help residents in Thurston County thrive.
