Meet Andrew Meet Andrew

Public service has never been a career choice.

It’s always been Andrew's calling.

Andrew Friedson has become known for his leadership enhancing quality of life, growing the local economy, and modernizing county government with a pragmatic, data-driven approach. He has built broad coalitions to tackle big issues to make Montgomery County more attractive, accessible, and affordable for families and businesses.  First elected in 2018 as the youngest Councilmember in County history, he later made history again when he was elected by colleagues in December 2023 as the youngest-ever Council President. Andrew is in his second term on the Montgomery County Council representing the only place he’s ever called home in District 1.

Councilmember Friedson chairs the Council's Planning, Housing, and Parks (PHP) Committee and serves on the Government Operations and Fiscal Policy (GO) Committee. He also serves as Chair of the Council of Governments’ (COG) Food & Agriculture (FARM) Policy Committee.
