About

Josh Hanson works as a Project Coordinator in a customer service department where he is tasked with identifying problems before they occur, and with finding ways to keep costs low when they do.  Josh understands that customer service is about more than improving technology, and unlike professional politicians, is willing to make the hard decisions to help make things better.

Unlike many politicians who have never held a private-sector job, Josh has experiences ranging from cutting grass at a golf course to selling sporting goods, from working in the Executive Director’s office of the Libertarian Party of Indiana to teaching English in South Korea.

Josh also graduated with a B.A. in Political Science from Wheaton College, and is a passionate student of economics in his spare time.  Josh has also served as the Chair of the DuPage County Libertarians and was named “Rookie of the Year” in 2009 by the Libertarian Party of Illinois.

Common sense has been absent from Illinois politics for too long, and Illinois politicians have only succeeded in making life more difficult for the people.  Illinois has real problems, and until we elect officials who understand that they are not overseers but servants of the people, we will continue to get the kind of government Illinoisans have come to expect over the past few years.
