(Please limit your response to 500 words or less.) My interest comes from the fact that I've been in the theatre program for 2 years and the way the school easily dismissed it was saddening. I mainly focused on theatre in the last 2 years so that's what made me want to serve on the board. I like to think I'm qualified because I'm a great listener and good at writing down what I hear.

(Please limit your response to 500 words or less.) I am a resident of Tukwila for over 25 years now and am familiar with the work of the HSAB through conversations with my spouse, Terra Straight, who has served on the board for many terms. For the last 3 funding cycles, I have been Terra's reader of the applications as her vision has deteriorated, During the most recent cycle this summer, I attended the meetings online with her. I say all of this because I know, firsthand, the committment and scheduling needed to read, score and discuss the applications and be available to meet with the agencies. I think that the overall health of a community is reflected in the policies, resources and actions taken to meet the needs of it's more vulnerable, displaced and marginalized members. Not easy to provide services to those needing it the most while paying attention to the whole community. That balancing act seems to be a large challenge at a time when money is needed for so many programs and services. My background includes a BA in Business Administration and a MA in Psychology. I worked 20+ years in community mental health including years at Highline Community Mental Health and King County Mental Health Services. I switched from mental health to construction administration for 10 years at Port of Seattle and retired from Seattle Housing Authority, after 15 years, where I administered housing construction and services contracts for rebuilding High Point and Yesler Terrace. Both my paid work and my volunteer work has allowed me to contribute to my communities. With my retirement, I am looking forward to serving on the HSAB.
