My name is Jerry Haywood and I was born here in Clarksville as a military dependent. After spending many years moving across the United States with my family, I graduated from Fort Campbell High School in 2013. I then attended Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, before enlisting in the United States Army as a Combat Medic. While in the Army, I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Sports and Health Science from American Military University and earned a Master of Business Administration with a concentration in Healthcare Administration. Currently I am working towards my Doctorate in Public Administration.

 As a proud veteran and dedicated advocate for positive change in our community I am thrilled to announce my candidacy for Ward 8 City Council. With my background in service to our country and a deep passion for public service, I am committed to bringing effective leadership and a fresh perspective to address the needs of our Ward 8 and the City of Clarksville.
