Background

Biography

Katie Hobbs was born on December 28, 1969, in Phoenix, Arizona. Her official biography says she graduated from Northern Arizona University in 1992 and holds a master's degree in social work from Arizona State University. She began her career as a social worker with homeless youth and later helped run a domestic violence shelter; the governor's office lists her as a former chief compliance officer for Sojourner Center.

She was elected to the Arizona House in 2010 and served four terms in the Arizona Legislature, including two as Senate minority leader. In 2018 she was elected secretary of state, and the governor's office describes her as Arizona's 21st secretary of state.

Hobbs was elected governor in 2022 and sworn in on January 2, 2023, as Arizona's 24th governor.
