Doug Ducey was elected as Arizona’s 32nd State Treasurer and began his first term on January 3, 2011. As Arizona’s Chief Banker and Investment Officer Treasurer Ducey oversees more than $12 billion in state assets.
 

Doug was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio, but Arizona is Doug's home. It’s where he met his college sweetheart – now wife of 22 years – Angela, and where he has raised his three sons Jack (16), Joe (13), and Sam (8). 
 

Doug came to Arizona in 1982 to attend Arizona State University where he graduated with his Bachelor of Science in Finance in 1986. He worked his way through college at Hensley & Co., the local Anheuser-Busch distributorship. Upon graduation, he joined Procter & Gamble and began a career in sales and marketing. There he was trained in management, preparing him for his role as partner and CEO of Cold Stone Creamery. When he and his business partner sold the company in 2007, Cold Stone had grown to more than 1,400 locations in all 50 states and 10 countries. 
 

Doug is also very active in the community and has been recognized by a number of charitable organizations including being named Father of the Year by the Father’s Day Council, was honored with the AFP Spirit of Philanthropy Award, and most recently received the Lifetime Compassion Award from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
