The Board of Directors of the West Seattle Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the appointment of Whitney Moore as the Chamber’s new Executive Director.

Moore brings to the West Seattle Chamber talents in community engagement, leadership, innovation, and a passion for small businesses. She has many years of leadership, communications, event planning and strategic marketing experience, and most recently worked with the Fremont Chamber of Commerce.

“Being a West Seattle resident—it’s a privilege to serve my local Chamber and our amazing community!” said Moore. “I plan on addressing the most pressing threats to our business community and continue working toward sustainable economic recovery and growth.”

The West Seattle community will have the opportunity to (virtually) meet Whitney at the Chamber’s annual Westside Awards Breakfast on Tuesday, May 18th starting at 7:30 am.  Aptly titled “Weathering the Storm,” the event will feature this year’s Westside Awards winners and nominees as well as community-produced “Sun Spots” – small thank you videos celebrating community members who have made this difficult past year a bit brighter for all of us.  $25 of each ticket will be in the form of a gift card to use at Chamber member restaurants as part of the Chamber’s continuing effort to support our local businesses.  Please join us on Tuesday, May 18th from 7:30 am to 9:00 am to virtually celebrate our community, our Awards Winners and nominees, and our new Executive Director!  Details and registration are on the Chamber’s website, or by calling 206-932-5685.
