Cynthia Dunham grew up the daughter of a Green Beret, and her upbringing took her from Utah to North Carolina, to Germany, and then to Washington. She returned to Utah as a college dance major, but life and love led her to Arizona, where she transitioned into accounting, eventually founding her own firm. Her journey into public service saw her elected as a council member and then as Mayor of Gilbert, where she championed sustainable neighborhoods and balanced growth. Her tenure saw Gilbert grow from a town of 100,000 to 170,000 residents, all while fostering community engagement and collaboration. She and her husband have together raised four children and are the proud grandparents to seven.

Guiding Growth: Conversations with Community Leaders

Join our hosts, Sarah Watts and Ben Kalkman, as we explore the human journey of leaders - their stories of humility, triumph, roadblocks, and lessons learned - as they reflect on how they became who they are today and share stories of inspiration and hope with listeners. We'll take away the title, just for a moment, and enjoy a connection with the soul.
