First introduced in 2012, the award is a way to recognize the life and work of the late Senator Scott White and honor those who follow in the footsteps of his commitment to public service and family. Farrell was chosen for her work on a variety of state and regional issues, as well as her continued dedication to her husband and two young children.

“I am honored to receive this award in the recognition of the late Senator White,” said Farrell. “Representing the same 46^th district where Scott once served, I promise to continue his great work in making Seattle and the Puget Sound a wonderful place to work and live.”

The award was presented at the Chamber’s Regional Leadership Conference in Cle Elum, Washington.

The annual gathering is focused identifying strategies that will help to grow our region’s global competitiveness, with a focus on increasing international engagement and global competitiveness.
