Cole Hanson, President

Hamline-Midway is at a transition between the neighborhood my father grew up in and the one my 3-year-old daughter will someday live in.

My name is Cole Hanson (he/him), and as a public health professional and community-based educator, I want to be one of your Hamline-Midway board members. As the current Board President, I work to ensure that, as our city changes, the Hamline-Midway remains an inclusive and vibrant home for folks of all ages, incomes, origins and backgrounds.

I seek to meet and represent our neighbors where they are and as they are, because who we will become as a neighborhood depends on all of us having a stake in this place we call home.

Whether you’re here for college or here for life, know that I’ll be here as someone to connect with and share joy alongside!
