Meet Rep. Brady Walkinshaw

Rep. Brady Walkinshaw (D-Seattle) was appointed to serve in the House of Representatives just a few short weeks before the legislative session began.

Last week, Brady sat down KUOW to talk about his background and priorities moving forward. According to the piece, it’s no big shock to those closest to Brady that he would end up in public service:

By the age of 4 or 5, “I have vivid memories of him organizing books on the floor [about] states and trying to figure out where the capitals were,” his father Charlie said.

Walkinshaw named his first dog George Washington and also dressed up as the nation’s first president for Halloween.

“He would set up his little Playmobil people and they were different nations of the world, and he would hop from one nation to another to visit his different people,” his mother said.
