Energizer
DISC Type : I

Mayor at Salt Lake City Corporation

Salt Lake City, Utah, United States

Overview

Erin Mendenhall is the 36th Mayor of Salt Lake City, a role she earned after a long career in public service focused on environmental advocacy. A graduate of the University of Utah with a Masters degree in science and technology, her work is deeply rooted in data-driven policy. People familiar with her work often call her tenacious.

Her entry into public service was driven by a deeply personal cause: learning that the citys poor air quality could shorten her newborn sons life. This motivated her to move from activism to policy-making to create a healthier community. She and her husband, Kyle, live in the East Liberty Park neighborhood with their three children.

Instead of leaving the city, she co-founded the non-profit organization Breathe Utah to advocate for cleaner air.
