I've been married since 1970 to my husband Jerry and have 3 children, Maggie
30, married and a lawyer, Tom 27, a restaurant manager and engaged, and
Stephen 24 a college student. I grew up in Indio, California but our family
moved to Newport Beach every summer when I was young to escape the heat and
one of my main goals while growing up was live at the beach rather than the
desert. I graduated from USC with a BA in Economics after being accepted in
the Residence Program for High School Seniors, and worked for an insurance
company and then Bank of America before I had my children. After the
children were born, I helped my husband in his business and volunteered. I'
ve been PTA President of Harbour View School and Marina High School, as well
as positions on the governing boards of School Site Counsel and After School
Achievement Program, cub scout den mother, active in little league and AYSO
and all the other myriad of other activities children get into. I was
Director of the Huntington Harbour Junior Sailing program for many years.
Also Yachtsman of the Year for Huntington Harbour Yacht Club and Yachtswoman
of the Year for the Association of San Pedro Bay Yacht Clubs. I was Training
Director for Area J (So. Calif., Nevada, Arizona, Utah) for the United
States Sailing Association. Also Director for the International Sabot
Association and Vice Chairman of the Southern California Youth Yacht Raciing
Association

I have first hand knowledge of working with homeowner's associations because
our first home in Huntington Harbour was in Tennis Estates, a townhouse
development. I not only served on many committees over the years we lived
there, but also served on the Board of Directors and was President for two
years.

I also have been active in various school and community groups including the
presidency of one of the Huntington Harbour Philharmonic groups, as well as
many positions on the Huntington Harbour Philharmonic board level.
