Beau Lane is a native Arizonan with decades of business leadership experience. Building a successful company in the community over the past 34 years has provided him the opportunity to give back to the community that has given so much to him and his family. After graduating from the University of Denver in the 1980s, he returned to Phoenix and joined the family business, an advertising agency called E.B. Lane. It was in Phoenix that he and his wife Donna raised a family of four children, and now with two grandchildren, it's even more important that Arizona has strong leaders of character leading us into the future. In 2013, Beau led a merger forming Lane
Terralever, where he currently serves as executive chairman. He is an active volunteer who serves as a member and on the boards of numerous organizations including Greater Phoenix Leadership, Grand Canyon University's Colangelo School of Business, Arizona State University's Cronkite School of Journalism, Phoenix Community Alliance, and the American Association of Advertising Agencies. Motivated by a call to public service, Beau aims to bring transparency, sensibility, and real leadership experience to Arizona as Secretary of State.- Restore trust in Arizona's elections
- Protect mail-in voting and the secret ballot
- Bring transparency and integrity as the chief elections officer, and bring executive business experience as chief of this state government-to-business service bureau.
I’m not a politician. I’m a business owner/operator, I’m a community leader, and I am committed to restoring faith and trust in our electoral systems and operating the Secretary of State’s office with professional business practices.
