(Baltimore, MD) -- Changes are coming to the administration of Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott.
Scott announced Monday that he's appointed Calvin Young III as his new chief of staff. Young will assume the position effective April 9th.
“To continue building on the historic progress we’ve made so far, we’re building the most hardworking and dedicated team this City has ever seen. And there is no one I trust more to lead that team than Calvin,” said Mayor Scott. “I’ve known Calvin since our days running high school track and field against each other. His intelligence has taken him everywhere — from the engineering bench to the corporate boardroom, from Harvard to the White House. But above all else, Calvin has always been a proud son of Baltimore. He will lead this office and this City with excellence, talent, and grit.”
Young has served as a senior advisor to Scott since September 2024 and served as his re-election campaign treasurer from 2023 to 2024.
“Serving as Mayor Scott’s chief of staff is the honor of a lifetime,” said Calvin Young. “Throughout my career, I have always sought to advance real change for people. Now, I am eager and enthusiastic to bring my dedication home. With falling crime rates, historic investments in our youth, and a growing population, Baltimore is in a renaissance thanks to the work of Brandon Scott. With this administrative team, what is possible for Baltimore is endless.”
Young replaces Marvin James, who is stepping down.
