A lifelong District A resident, Aimee McCarron is a mother of twins and a budget geek. She is a proud graduate of Ursuline Academy High School, the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA), and the University of New Orleans. Until she became a full-time candidate, Aimee served as the Policy and Budget Director for Councilmember Joe Giarrusso for District A.

A veteran of the New Orleans service industry, Aimee learned early on in life the value of hard work and the joys and struggles that service employees experience every day. To convince her parents to let her start driving, Aimee started working as a phone server at Reginelli's so she could pay for her own car insurance. During college, she worked full-time as a line cook at Sun Ray Grill and Ralph's on the Park, all while she was a full-time college student. At UNO, Aimee studied Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Management, which led her to work her way up from the kitchen to Sales Manager at Ralph Brennan Restaurant Group.

After a successful run in the service industry, Aimee traded her kitchen spoons for spreadsheets, becoming a City Business Award-winning financial advisor for 8 years with Prudential Advisors. Clients trusted Aimee to plan and budget for all stages of their financial life and to help make money work for them. Her experience in finance gave her insight into the problems and inefficiencies inherent in the system. That's when she knew she needed to find something outside of work where she could begin to effect change in her community.

With years of professional experience across sectors and a reputation for trustworthiness, Aimee set out to apply her passion and tenacity to improving the community and the shared home. After her election as President of the Young Leadership Council, her commitment to public service drove her to seek out an opportunity to work directly on the problems she saw all around the community.
