In just the first year of his second term in the Senate, Reed has assumed the role of Senate Majority Leader. That post is chosen by the Senate caucus, showing how well liked and respected he is among his colleagues. He is the first senator from the class of 2010 to rise into Senate Leadership, and is one one of a very small handful of senators who have a legitimate shot at becoming Pro Tem.

Reed is also president of Preferred Medical Systems, a company that sells medical equipment in multiple states. That background has allowed him to quickly become a significant player in reforming the state’s healthcare system.

There’s a general sense around the Statehouse that Reed is going places. He will definitely be one to watch over the next decade.
