Be detail-oriented with Crystal Feldman
Born in Concord, NC, Tom Fetzer was always into sports. The reason? His father was a football coach and his mother coached girls tennis. Tom lived in Chapel Hill until 6years old and then moved to Raleigh. As a youngster, he loved to read and write. English, history and civics were his favorite topics. During high school, he was always intrigued by politics and Winston Churchill was his favorite political figure. He chose Wake Forest to major in politics. Tom graduated in 1978 right when Reagan was running for President.
He was inspired to make a difference and so went to Washington for a year to work on campaigns. When Tom came back to Raleigh, he ran for congress but lost. That did not deter Tom. He went on to work for different administrations, gained experience in policy and then became the Mayor of Raleigh in 1993 when he was just 38 years old.
Join me in learning the wisdom, experiences and personal life story of Tom Fetzer in this next episode.
