Endorsed by
Born in Alabama. Built to solve problems. Running to build what our community needs next.
There is a saying "The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born," but that transition is over. The new world is here. Public trust in institutions has been deeply fractured by outdated systems that serve a select few. The federal government has abandoned communities like ours, and at the state level we are met with apathy. Forrest Satterfield is not here to promise a return to a bygone era. He is here to help build what comes next. Forrest is a UAB-trained engineer and serial entrepreneur who founded his first startup at age 19. From 3D-printed medical devices to custom-fit respirator masks for frontline healthcare workers during COVID-19, he has spent his career solving real problems for real people. He has worked in Huntsville since 2022, and today he builds manufacturing and data systems for a Huntsville defense and engineering company.

The values that drive everything we do
Forrest Satterfield is guided by six core values that shape his decisions as a candidate and will continue to do so as a representative. These values have also been the foundation of every company he has built.
Transparency
You deserve transparency about how your tax dollars are spent. Forrest is committed to creating public dashboards and open records, updated quarterly in plain language, so our community can easily audit government activities.
Hard work
Forrest is dedicated to spending time not only in Montgomery but working within the district: hosting town halls, conducting listening sessions, and drafting bills before they are filed.
Care & passion
The same drive that led to founding a medical-device company at nineteen is applied here: understanding problems from within, not from an outsider's perspective. This approach shapes our campaign's focus on healthcare, housing, infrastructure, education, and child care.
Equality
Our community runs on working families, rural neighbors, and people the system stopped noticing a long time ago. Forrest is building a campaign that listens to them first, not last.
Independence
This campaign is funded by neighbors, not corporate PACs.
Innovation
Each initiative begins by identifying the root cause of issues and culminates in effective solutions.

What brought me to this point.
Throughout my career, I've focused on creating meaningful impact, addressing issues others tend to overlook, and being present during critical moments. In the business world, leaders provide stakeholders with quarterly reports, detailing achievements, ongoing projects, and investment allocations. I plan to apply the same rigorous approach in Montgomery by delivering quarterly public updates, ensuring District 21 always knows precisely what their representative is doing for them.
