About the Comptroller

Brooke Lierman is the 34th Comptroller of the state of Maryland and the first woman to be independently elected to one of our state's constitutional offices. After running a strong, policy-focused and grassroots-led two-year campaign, she was elected with over 60% of the vote in November 2022. She is an attorney by training, practicing as a civil rights and disability rights lawyer for many years, and prior to her election as Comptroller, she served for 8 years a member of the House of Delegates representing part of Baltimore City.

While in the House, she spent time in leadership roles on both the Appropriations Committee and the Environment and Transportation Committee and chaired the Joint Committee on Pensions. Brooke successfully passed landmark legislation on a range of issues from transit and broadband to criminal justice reform and public education.

As Comptroller, she is leading an agency of 1,200 dedicated Maryland public servants in 12 offices around the state. Together and under her leadership, the office is working to create a Maryland that is more equitable, more resilient, and more prosperous so that all Marylanders can reach their full potential.

Brooke grew up in Montgomery County and graduated from Dartmouth College. After participating in the AmeriCorpsVISTA program, working on several federal campaigns, and spending a year at the Center for American Progress, Brooke attended the University of Texas School of Law and then moved to Baltimore for a federal clerkship. Brooke lives in downtown Baltimore with her husband and two school-aged children who attend Baltimore City Public Schools. She is a lifelong Orioles fan.
