I have lived in Tarzana for twenty-four years, with a background in organizing events and conferences. My goals for the Tarzana Neighborhood Council (TNC) are to develop an “army” of non-partisan volunteers to provide “extras” for our schools and seniors, encourage environmental sustainability; promote public safety; and encourage all Tarzana stakeholders to participate in keeping the LA city services- both elected and bureaucratic- accountable.

Having been appointed to the Board of the TNC two years ago, I am the Outreach Committee chairperson. To date, we have organized some very successful events, including The First Annual Earth Day and two very successful ONEgeneration Senior Symposiums. In fact, Empower LA, the City agency responsible for the Neighborhood Councils, designated me as a “local hero” for the most recent project.

Working together makes a big difference. We want Tarzana to be a real community-NOT JUST a suburb in the San Fernando Valley
