Following graduate school, I decided it was time to get officially involved, and so I met with Steve Rosansky several times and he encouraged me to apply for certain appropriate positions. I was subsequently elected to the LUEAA committee, through which I have learned a considerable amount of the interworkings of the city and the various resident interests. Following the most recent LUEAA committe meeting, Nancy Gardner informed me there was a vacancy on the Water Quality committee and suggested I apply, given my love for the beach and eventual desire to serve on the PB &R Commission. - Qualifications: I have extensive experience in finance, management, strategy, marketing and technology, which I can apply to Newport.
