Troy Brewer

Bellevue native and local businessman Troy Brewer today announced his intentions to run for the Tennessee State House in District 50. Bringing new jobs to the district, strengthening education and preserving Tennessee’s traditional values will be his top priorities.

“I was born and raised in Bellevue, raised my family here, and have experienced the growth of this community. I’m excited about the challenge ahead, but I understand they’re a lot of our neighbors still struggling financially right now. I’m ready to roll up my sleeves and do my part to create a better workforce environment for the next generation,” Brewer said.

Brewer, a 1987 graduate of Mississippi State University, received his B.S. in Finance, and was also a manager on the Mississippi State football team. Brewer received his CPA license in 1997 and currently serves as President of Brewer and Associates in Nashville where he has been in business since 2002. In 2011, Governor Bill Haslam appointed Brewer to the State Accountancy Board and in 2012 he was named to the NASBA, a National Accountancy Board, where he serves on the UAA Accountancy Committee. Brewer is a member of the Tennessee Society of Accountants.

“Tennessee deserves representatives who will put the interests of the people first, and push partisan politics to the back burner. I intend on working closely with Governor Haslam and Speaker Harwell to increase our opportunities for success by utilizing my business experience and conservative, common-sense approach in making tough decisions,” Brewer said.

A native of Davidson County, Brewer attended Bellevue High School and graduated from Hillwood High School in 1982. He is a member of the Bellevue and Goodlettsville Chambers, Farm Bureau, and the National Rifle Association. Brewer has been active in the Bellevue community coaching youth baseball and basketball where he also served as Commissioner of the Bellevue Baseball Park. He also previously coached middle school baseball at David Lipscomb.

Brewer has been married for 26 years to his wife Annette Sims and they have two children, Ben, a graduate of University of Tennessee at Martin, and Allison, a senior at Lipscomb Academy. The Brewers are members of Forest Hills Baptist Church where Brewer has served as a Sunday school teacher.
