Senator Mitt Romney is uniquely positioned to serve Utah and fight for Utahns.

In 2012, Romney was the Republican nominee for President. He was a candidate for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination and served as Governor of Massachusetts from 2003 through 2007.

Prior to his time as Governor, he led the 2002 Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the Winter Olympics and, with a team of volunteers and managers, helped turn the struggling Games into a Utah success story.

Before entering into public service, Romney led a successful business career. He was the co-founder of Bain Capital, a leading investment company, and the turnaround CEO of Bain and Company, an international management consulting firm. Romney served on the board of directors of Marriott International and as Chairman of the Solamere Capital Executive Partner Group.

In addition to his public and private sector experience, Romney has served with several charities and in volunteer positions in his church and community. He currently works with CharityVision in Salt Lake City and the Ann Romney Center for Neurologic Diseases in Boston. Romney earned his bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University and his JD/MBA from Harvard University.

He is the proud husband to Ann Romney, father to five sons, and grandfather to 24 grandchildren.
