Dr. Calvin Ball has been around and both the Rev and I have known him for a long time. He's been patient and focused on making Howard County the best it could be his entire career. He served as a Member of the County Council, which he lead for at least two cycles and now as the County Executive, he's leaving his mark on a County that doesn't come to decisions easily.

We were so happy to catch up with him poolside, one thing Calvin Ball knows is where business get's done and that's in person face to face at the ISSC Maryland Party in Las Vegas. Calvin has been friendly to the development community and continues to work together with them as Howard County continues to expand.

Calvin is well known for his focus on education, public safety, and environmental sustainability. During his time as County Executive, he has been a strong advocate for improving public schools, expanding affordable housing, and fostering economic development in the region. His leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic was marked by efforts to ensure public health while supporting local businesses and communities through various challenges.

Calvin Ball's commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equality has also been a hallmark of his administration, as he continues to work towards creating a more inclusive and prosperous Howard County for all its residents.

Let's hear from our friend as we dive into what makes this leader tick...

Thanks Calvin for all you do! As we top off our Vegas series conversations with County Executives this is another great one and we want to thank all of them for joining us...

Two more great poolside conversations coming and we're outta Vegas...

Enjoy!
