About John Blom


John Blom is a REALTOR based in Vancouver, Washington and he
always had a passion for public policies. One of his fellow
brokers knew about this and so encouraged him to join the local
association government affairs committee. He also ran for office
and was elected to a seat in the Clark Country Council. John
really believes in connecting stories to policies and
understanding how these could impact people’s lives.
