Mayor Michele LaBree Daniels
(Term 11/22 to 11/25)
I grew up in Bradley and Bangor. Along with my husband, Tim, we have resided in Brewer for over 30 years. We share three children, who all graduated from Brewer High School, and two wonderful granddaughters.
Working, from a early age, for a family business taught me management and organizational skills. The majority of my work experience is with a large Telecommunication Company and as an Union Steward for CWA local 1400. I believe in Volunteerism. I served on many boards and committees for the City of Brewer, as well as volunteering at the Maine Summer Special Olympics through the Telephone Pioneers as a life member. I coached PAL Softball, Brewer Youth Wrestling and was the Brewer Little League Player Agent. It is an honor to serve the people of Brewer as a City Councilor and former two term Mayor.

Deputy Mayor Jenn Morin
(Term 11/24-11/27)
I have lived, worked and volunteered in the City of Brewer my entire life. I went through the Brewer school system where my children are currently being educated by teachers who taught me. As a Brewer native, I believe strongly in giving back to my community. I have served on many local boards over the years and most recently in leadership capacities for the Bangor Area Recovery Network and the Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center Auxiliary. In 2016, I was recognized for my volunteer work and was presented with the “2 Those Who Care” award. Professionally, I’m a business coach and financial management consultant serving small to midsize businesses throughout the State of Maine. As a business coach, I guide my clients to success by working with them to create a long-term vision for their company and by developing actionable plans to help them realize their vision, with the primary focus being to help Maine businesses grow, buy and sell. I have three children, Gabriel and his wife Brooklyn, Kaiden and Julia. I’m looking forward to serving the people of Brewer, utilizing my managerial and financial background to navigate what will likely be a challenging year.

Councilor Soubanh Phanthay
(Term 11/22 to 11/25)
I was born in a village in Laos, just outside the capital city of Vientiane. When I was four years old, the Laotian civil war broke out and my family was forced to flee our village. We escaped to a refugee camp in Thailand. We eventually immigrated to America, landing in Houlton, and then Bangor, where I grew up and graduated from Bangor High School. I coached springboard diving for over fifteen years, working with people of all skill levels, from the beginner level at the Bangor YMCA to Division 1 at the University of Maine. I’ve been a photographer for nearly twenty years, starting my first business, a video production company, in 2001. I now own a commercial and event photography business, and travel throughout Eastern Maine photographing the happy moments in people’s lives. I moved to Brewer six years ago with my wife and daughter and we love living here. I hope to bring some new, fresh ideas to the City Council and help Brewer prepare for the future.
