I\u2019m running because I\u2019ve seen what happens when people are overlooked or left behind\u2014and I won\u2019t let that happen on my watch. District 60 deserves leadership that listens, that shows up, and that gets things done. District 60 is ready for bold leadership that fights for better healthcare, safer neighborhoods, and real economic opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lumpkin is a graduate of the University of Tennessee, where she earned a bachelor of science in marketing and logistics before going on to achieve her jurisprudence doctor from the Birmingham School of Law. She has spent 17 years working for the City of Birmingham, where she currently serves as the director of process improvement.<\/p>\n<p>The seat is currently held by Democratic Rep. Juandalynn Givan, who has established herself as a sometimes controversial firebrand on the House floor.
