Newport Beach offers the finest quality of life worldwide. After growing up In Los Angeles and Orange County, then attending school in
Seattle, working In San Diego and Connecticut, and having children in Zurich, Switzerland, I am ready to serve my hometown. Could we

Dreams we could manifest:
1) Solar panels at San Onofre and the nuclear reactor shuttered (all units). No more dead sea area from leaks.
2) Hillsides sold to Individuals like Shania Twain for ranches, horses, natural vegetation, and maintenance of the local wildlife.
3) Recycling plant success enhanced with separate household bins for plastic, glass, aluminum, and paper.

Summarize why you wish to serve the City of Newport Beach on a board, commission or committee. Include any special qualifications
you have which are particularly appropriate to the position for which you are applying.
1) 1 want to be more involved with my community. I think strong community is foundational to all that really counts in life. 1 see EQAC as
a way to show my willingness to work constructively and be involved in a meaningful way. I ran for city council which clearly shows my
interest in Newport Beach.
2) 1 have love of the environment and have studied environmental issues at a graduate level at Claremont. The manner in which we deal
with environmental issues will determine our children's future.
3) 1 worked in the steel recycling industry for nearly 20 years and in addition to trading metals, i managed large scrap recycling industries
in Detroit, Iowa and Southern California. I have been involved numerous times with the EIR process while in the steel industry. In the
1980's and 1990's more stringent environmental rules and regulation made us all somewhat expert on land and water quality issues. A
scrap yard is in a true sense a waste management site.
4) If my position on the Banning Ranch Conservancy Board is seen as a conflict, as I think it would be, I would resign my position there.
Of course my hopes for Banning Ranch would not change but that could well be a plus at EQAC.
I certify that all statements made on this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I have read and understand the
