Congressman Blake Moore is a native of Ogden, Utah. Before being elected to Congress, Blake worked for small businesses and in the foreign service, experiences that now guide his work on domestic and foreign policy.

His passion for helping organizations manage the change process drives his ambition to overcome partisan gridlock, improve federal agencies, and smartly streamline the nation’s bureaucracy. Blake obtained a Master’s in Public Policy and Administration from Northwestern University.
