Born and raised in the neighborhoods of Trenholm Court and Sheridan Heights, she has first-hand experience with the day-to-day issues impacting the residents of District 3.

Inspired by the strong men and women of the community that came before her, Marche’ T. Johnson is no stranger to rolling up her sleeves and getting the job done.

From a teenager, whose mother passed away at a young age to becoming a young mother herself, Marche’ never backed down in the face of adversity, instead, she rose to the occasion and exceeded the standard.

After attending AUM with plans of becoming a lawyer, Johnson decided that she would selflessly serve this great nation as a member of The United States Army.

Marche’s days of serving the country have come to an end but her service to the District 3 community of Montgomery is just beginning. Johnson hopes to change the narrative of distrust between the community and local officials by facilitating collaboration, communication, and education around addressing issues present in District 3. She believes that the community’s voice should be heard and that District 3 deserves a champion to not only deliver those concerns to city hall but stand firm to get things done. Johnson’s unwavering faith in Montgomery’s ability to change and prosper combined with her merit as a leader makes her an ideal candidate for District 3 City Council. As she’s done many times, Marche’ is On The Move and ready to lead by example!
