I am a Combination Inspector in Building & Safety and have been with the City since July 2018. I’ve previously served on the LVCEA board as a Trustee and in that role, I learned the job of reconciliation. As Trustee you are required on a rotational basis to verify monthly expenditures; this is a check on the Treasurer and their bookkeeping to verify all funds are accounted for. I can come to the Board as Treasurer and hit the ground running.
I honorably served in the Marine Corps Reserve for 8 years where I learned the true meaning of Esprit De Corps. For those who don’t know the meaning: “the common spirit existing in the members of a group and inspiring enthusiasm, devotion, and strong regard for the honor of the group”.
My career has spanned 30 years in organized labor, shop steward (representative) and negotiation committees. I would love the opportunity to serve on your Board once again and assist in protecting your and LVCEA’s best interests.
