LeAnn Vance is in her first term as a City Council representative for Ward Three, which includes Midtown, western Hattiesburg and the Lamar County portion of the city.

A lifelong resident of Hattiesburg, LeAnn is a graduate of Hattiesburg High School and earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Southern Mississippi. Deeply rooted in the community, she has served as president of the Junior Auxiliary of Hattiesburg, remains a member of the University of Southern Mississippi Alumni Association, and has held leadership roles at both the local and national levels with Kappa Delta Sorority.

Professionally, LeAnn has built a successful career in sales, marketing, and project management—fields where strong communication, service, and relationship-building are key.

She and her husband, Nick, recently became small business owners and are committed to contributing to Hattiesburg’s continued growth. LeAnn believes her years of experience in understanding people’s needs will translate well into thoughtful, responsive service on the Council.

She and Nick are the proud parents of two sons, Nicholson and Turner, both students at The University of Southern Mississippi.
