AIMEE
BROADHURST
Ally Grand Marshal
GRAND MARSHAL
Q&A
Aimee Broadhurst, originally from
Concord, North Carolina, credits
her mother for instilling in her the
importance of speaking up for the
“marginalized and the voiceless.”
She is passionate that everyone,
including her three gay sisters and
their wives/partners, be treated
equally. This passion includes her
involvement at Plymouth United
Church, an open-and-affirming
church, where she has served as
moderator (i.e., council president).
As part of her commitment to LGBT
community, Aimee co-founded and
leads her company’s global Ally
Program, which currently has over
18,000 visible allies and out-at-
work teammates.
Aimee has been married to her
husband, Trey, for 16 years and has
“two beautiful daughters, Lauren
and Kennedy,” two “grumpy-but-
lovable” miniature dachsunds and a
third adorable mutt.

Marshal mean to you?

Marshal to further my work as an ally, and to be
better connected and engaged in work at the
state and federal level.
