MEET DANTE
I am a proud lifelong resident of Wilson County and my local family ties go back generations. After graduating from Wilson County Public Schools, I went on to college at UNC-Chapel Hill. Public schools taught me the value of public service and I know I wouldn't be where I am today without the support of dedicated educators.
After graduation, I returned home to serve the community that raised me and have served on a variety of local non-profit and public service boards.
Dante wants to make life easier for folks in eastern North Carolina. He will be a champion for affordable healthcare, public education, and economic opportunities.
