Meet Ty Bell
A Leader Who Believes in Meridian
I am Ty Bell, a proud daughter of Meridian, Mississippi—born, raised, and bred at Redline. My roots run deep in this community, and my journey has been shaped by the people, values, and experiences that make our city great. As a product of Meridian’s public schools and a graduate of Meridian High School, I understand firsthand the potential within our city and the need to invest in our people and our future.
My educational journey took me beyond Meridian, but my heart never left home. I attended Alcorn State University and The University of Southern Mississippi, expanding my knowledge in business and leadership. I also had the incredible opportunity to study abroad at King’s College in London, England, focusing on Marketing and International Economics. These experiences broadened my perspective and reinforced my passion for creating opportunities that uplift our community.
A Career Built…
Serving Meridian as the Current Councilwoman for Ward 5
I have spent my career working in industries that touch lives and build communities. From the USDA to Walt Disney World, from American Girl Place under Mattel Toy Company to serving as a flight attendant for 16 years, I have gained invaluable experience in business, customer service, and leadership. My background in both the private and public sectors has prepared me to bring innovative, effective, and people-first leadership to Meridian.
Public service has always been at the heart of my mission. I previously served on the Civil Service Commission Board under the last administration, where I worked to ensure fairness and accountability in local government. As a current councilwoman, I have been a strong advocate for crime reduction, economic development, youth empowerment, and city beautification—all with the goal of making Meridian a place where families can thrive.
A Vision for Meridian
I am running to be YOUR MAYOR because I believe in Meridian and the people who call it home. My vision is clear.
