Susie Wiles has been selected as President-elect Donald Trump's incoming White House chief of staff, transitioning from her role as a campaign co-chair to the president's closest adviser and counsel. With decades of experience in politics, Wiles has made a name for herself primarily in Florida.
Wiles' political journey began in the 1970s when she worked in the Washington office of New York Rep. Jack Kemp. She later served on Ronald Reagan's campaign and in his White House as a scheduler. Moving to Florida, Wiles advised Jacksonville mayors, worked for Rep. Tillie Fowler, and played a crucial role in helping Rick Scott secure the governor's office.
