Laura Huber grew up on wildlife refuges across the country, where her father worked as a manager for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Surrounded by nature and raised with a deep respect for the land, she learned early on the importance of conservation, stewardship, and protecting our shared resources. Those roots, combined with her parents’ farming backgrounds, continue to shape her values today. Laura’s mother was raised on a dairy farm, her father came from a family of ranchers and farmers, and her father is still involved in farming to this day. With this upbringing, Laura carries strong Midwestern values of hard work, honesty, and community into everything she does.

Laura earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Psychology, with a minor in Chemistry, and she has built her professional career as a mental health counselor and advocate. Her training in science and her commitment to mental health give her a unique ability to both analyze problems through research and data while also listening deeply to the lived experiences of the people she serves.

As a candidate for the Arizona State Senate, Laura is dedicated to clean air, clean water, and confronting climate change with science-based solutions. She believes strongly in the power of research and evidence to guide public policy, ensuring that decisions made at the Capitol truly serve the people of Arizona—today and for generations to come.

For Laura, this campaign is about bringing integrity, compassion, and common-sense problem-solving to government. She envisions an Arizona where every person has the opportunity not just to survive, but to thrive.
