Biography

Quall attended Seattle Pacific University and earned a master's degree in Education Guidance and Counseling in 1974. He worked for thirty-eight years in education.

As a representative, he served as Chair of the Education Committee, and he has been a member of the Economic Development, Agriculture and Trade Committee.

His legislative priorities were to "help public schools meet the new high standards of Education Reform," "Increasing family-wage jobs and a healthy economic climate," and to make "home-ownership affordable for young families starting out".[1]

In 2006 he faced Republican challenger Yoshe Revelle for Representative District No. 40, Position No. 1 and easily defeated him with the help of campaign manager Miriam Witt.
