Affordable Dwelling Unit Advisory Board
I want to serve in this Advisory Board because I am a particpant in the program and know from personal experience and observation the good that this program does for some citizens of Loudoun County.
My work experience has been in sales and investment analysis. While I started as an investment analyst at a Tawianese investment bank, I later spent 9 years in the wine industry working in retail, wholesale and supplier parts of the industry. Currently, I have returned to my financial services roots and begun building a financial planning practice.
My most recent volunteer experience is in my daughter's PTA where I am in charge of our fundraising efforts. The position involves asking families to participate in events, arranging volunteers to run and plan events and campaigns, and reaching out to local businesses for donations. While in college, I serrved with the American Red Cross and Bethesday Chevy Chase Rescue Squad as an EMT.
