Reinhold Richard "Reince" Priebus (/ˌraɪns ˈpriːbəs/ RYNS PREE-bəs; born March 18, 1972) is an American attorney and politician who chaired the Republican National Committee from 2011 to 2017 and currently serves as the White House Chief of Staff in the Trump administration. He has previously served as RNC general counsel and is the former chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin.
Reinhold Richard Priebus was born on March 18, 1972, in Dover, New Jersey, and lived in Netcong, New Jersey, until his family moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin, when he was seven years old. His father is a former union electrician and his mother a real estate agent. Some sources, including his biography on the Republican Party website, identify his parents' names as "Richard and Dimitra", with "Roula" as a nickname for his mother. His father is of German descent and his mother, who was born in Sudan, is of Greek descent.
At 16, he volunteered for several political campaigns while attending Tremper High school in Kenosha, WI. After graduating from Tremper, he attended the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, where he majored in English and political science, and joined the Delta Chi fraternity. Priebus graduated cum laude in 1994 and prior to that had been elected to serve as student body president.
