Councilmember Elizabeth M. Beck

Elizabeth is a mother, veteran, lawyer, and life-long resident of Fort Worth. After graduating from Southwest High School she joined the U.S. Army Reserves, where she spent eight and a half years in the 223rd Maintenance Company based out of Grand Prairie.  In 2005, she deployed as a Sergeant to Taji, Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Weeks after returning from Iraq, Elizabeth was attending classes to complete her Bachelor’s degree at the University of Texas at Arlington. While completing her Masters in City and Regional Planning and the University of Texas at Arlington, she began working full-time as a transportation planner at the North Central Texas Council of Governments.

While at the Council of Governments, Elizabeth again served her community on a wide range of projects, including protecting NAS JRB, Fort Worth through compatible development, environmental justice and civil rights compliance. 

Elizabeth’s need to fight to make her community a better place led her to Texas A&M School of Law, where she earned her law degree. As a lawyer, Elizabeth represents employees across the country in wage and hour claims.

Elizabeth currently raises her two children, three-legged dog, and three-legged cat in District 9’s South Hills Neighborhood.
