Donald Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway is headed to the White House, where she’ll serve as counsellor to the U.S. president, according to his transition team.
Conway served as Trump’s third campaign manager and is widely credited with helping guide him to victory. She is also a frequent guest on television news programs.
Trump praised Conway as a “tireless and tenacious advocate” of his agenda in a statement early Thursday.
Conway had said previously that she planned to move her family to Washington to serve Trump, either inside or outside the administration.
The transition team said Conway “will work with senior leadership” in the White House “to effectively message and execute the administration’s legislative priorities and actions.”
