Republican candidate Courtney Kirby McCroskey brings nearly a decade of local experience and a deep commitment to public service.

 

A lifelong Sevier County resident, born and raised on her family’s farm in Kodak, McCroskey has a strong background in local government and community involvement. She attended Northview schools, graduated from Sevier County High School, earned a degree in Business Administration from Walters State Community College’s Sevier County Campus, and has been an active participant in County Trustee operations for close to a decade.

 

“Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to learn from experienced public servants,” McCroskey stated. “I was trained by former Trustee Jettie Clabo and worked closely with Greg Patterson. My goal is to bring the same dedication, integrity, and community-focused approach that I’ve witnessed from previous Trustees to serve the people of Sevier County.”

 

McCroskey’s experience includes beginning her work in the Trustee’s office under Jettie Clabo in 2016, gaining valuable insights into county operations. She is currently serving as Chief Deputy under Trustee Faye Loveday, drawing from the collective wisdom of three Trustees with over 40 years of combined experience.

 

Jettie Clabo, who is serving as Treasurer for the campaign to elect Courtney Kirby McCroskey, added: “Having served as Trustee for 30 years, I know the importance of dedication and institutional knowledge. Courtney has been trained by the best and has the experience to serve Sevier County with the same honesty, integrity, and commitment that has always defined our Trustee’s office. Her deep roots in our community and her years of hands-on experience make her the ideal candidate to continue the tradition of excellent public service.”

 

McCroskey lives in Sevierville with her husband, Spencer, and their 2½-year-old daughter, Elenora Faye. Her hobbies include farming on her husband’s family farm and enjoying the mountains and rivers our beautiful area offers, embodying the community-centered values she hopes to bring to the Sevier County Trustee’s office.
