Asia Williams, Commissioner
District 2
Asia Williams, SSBB, LPN, IA, MBA
My family decided to move to North Idaho and specifically Bonner County to build a homestead in Blanchard Idaho. For me, the value of the area was not in dollars and cents but in the landscape, the wildlife, the quiet nights, and the community.Â
My professional background is diverse. Â I have worked in both the public and private sector. From working in industrial insurance for state funds and self-insureds, to quality risk management in health care, to working as a Director of Nursing. Â I have utilized my education in process improvement and six sigma to improve the overall function of various forms of local and state government. Â Â
As the Bonner County Commissioner for District 2, I will use my educational and professional background as well as my leadership and communication skills to bring transparency to county business. Â I have been an active member of the community and I will continue to ensure I am available to hear the issues and the concerns that are impacting the residents of Bonner County.
Since being elected as your District 2 County Commissioner, I have actively expanded my professional and educational background to better serve you. I didn't just hear your voices; I listened. In addition to my collegiate degrees, I completed coursework to become an advanced grant writer, a grant writer consultant, and an internal auditor.
Over the next four years, I am committed to becoming a Certified Internal Auditor through the Institute of Internal Auditors. I heard your desire for an elected official who would prioritize fiscal responsibility, including internal auditing. Although I hold a Master's in Business Administration, I took these additional steps to specifically focus on what Bonner County residents wanted.
During my service, I have focused on fiscal responsibility, reducing litigation costs, enhancing transparency, and adhering to the comprehensive plan . I have consistently ensured that the voice of the people is heard in local government.
It is truly my honor and privilege to serve the people of Bonner County. I am dedicated to preserving the heritage that so many have been fortunate to enjoy throughout their lives, and to protecting the beauty of the landscape we all call home.
