My board experience includes: La Clinica in the past, RACC advisory board, vice president and secretary of the Board of Trustees of the SPLD, president and treasurer of the Friends of the SPLD and chair of the board of Shii Koeii Farm. As well as the above I volunteer at GVS in the greenhouse and community garden, with the SPLD at the bookmobile and with the Gardner food bank.

I would like to see La Clinica offer healthcare in Huerfano County again and am willing to work hard to make that happen.
