About this Candidate
Colm Willis is a native Oregonian. He is a husband, a father of two girls and a small business attorney in Stayton, Oregon. Some of his favorite memories as a child include spending Christmas Eve every year at Mt. Angel with his family and hiking the timberline trail around Mount Hood during the summer.
After high school Colm attended Boston College in Massachusetts. When he graduated, Colm took a job in the U.S. Senate as an aide to the Joint Economic Committee during the economic collapse of 2008. He staffed congressional hearings with Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and helped economists analyze data. However not long after he was hired, Colm left Capitol Hill, feeling disillusioned with members of both parties’ decision to bail out investment banks and major corporations with taxpayer dollars instead of giving the taxpayer money back to working people.
