 Bridges hires Jalot

            Rob Bridges, one of seven candidates for three seats on the Wake Forest Town Board, has hired Tresa Jalot, the former deputy director at the Wake Forest Chamber of Commerce as his campaign director.

            “I couldn’t be more pleased to have such a talented and dedicated person working on my campaign,” said Bridges. “Tresa’s organizational skills and wealth of community knowledge are true assets. She grew up here, she worked here and she really cares about the future of Wake Forest.”

            Jalot, a graduate of Wake Forest-Rolesville High School and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, began her career as a newscaster at WRAL-TV. She has also been the membership and marketing director at Heritage Golf Club.

            Bridges was a planning board member from 1995 to 2001, when he was elected a town commissioner. He lost a re-election bid in 2005. He has a design business in Raleigh.

            Bridges says he has been paying close attention to residents’ concerns since then and plans to use his renewed perspective to preserve parks and green space and to revitalize the downtown area and the northeast quadrant.
