Kenyatte Hassell

I am a native of Montgomery, Alabama, and a lifelong resident of Alabama’s 78th House District. I am a husband, father of four, and active member of the community.

I have served with the nationwide faith-based organization YoungLife for 16 years, and I currently serve as Montgomery’s Urban Director. In this position, I engage with youth and their families to build authentic relationships and help them grow in their faith. In addition, I manage Heritage Barbershop, which allows me to directly interact with community members and learn about their hopes, needs, and concerns.

Beyond my family and professional activities, I am an accomplished campaign manager and strategist. I have served as campaign manager for Kirk Hatcher for House District 78, a strategist for Kirk Hatcher for Senate District 26, and have consulted for many other successful local campaigns. Also, I serve as coordinator for the Montgomery County Democratic Conference and as a member of the Alabama State Democratic Executive Committee.

After a lifetime in House District 78, I feel ready to be a committed and dedicated servant and advocate for the citizens of my district.
