The CHAUNCEY Show-Meet Wendy Nevarez (R) Candidate for US Congress NC-D11. Wendy was raised in the foothills of Western North Carolina. Her family roots are very deep in WNC. Her father was born in Murphy, N.C. and is a descendent of the 1,000 Cherokee that remained in Western N.C. and Tennessee when most were forced out and down the Trail of Tears. “I find genealogy so interesting. To see how we are connected to the places we pass by and find new relatives we didn’t know we had. The biggest thing is to see the struggles endured and how I exist because they resisted and persisted.”  Wendy received her Bachelor Degree in Political Science from UNC -Asheville (Go Dogs!) and her Master of Public Affairs from Western Carolina University (Go Catamounts!). During this time she has worked at law firms to help support her family and better understand law with hopes of obtaining a J.D. in the future. “My mom asked if I was finished with my education when I graduated with my Masters. My answer was and is that I am never finished learning.”  Wendy's mission is to focus on families first by addressing the lack of workforce housing, economic growth that leads to jobs for the region, and improving infrastructure such as broadband so that it is accessible to all of WNC which will lead to better work and educational outcomes for citizens.  Join national political commentator/host of The CHAUNCEY Show, Chauncey I. Brown III and US Congressional candidate Wendy Nevarez to hear about Wendy'r plan for the state of North Carolina and the nation. *Visit us on Linktree and follow us on all socisal media platforms https://linktr.ee/TheCHAUNCEYShowUSA
