INTEREST AND/OR SKILLS:  I’m running for Audit Committee and Safety Committee because I want to contribute back to the community and continue learning about how the Arden government works. For Audit Committee, I think my experience serving on the Budget Committee over the last year would be beneficial. If elected, it will probably make me a better Budget Committee member too! I’m also running for Safety Committee because, well, I think safety is important and the time spent improving safety, even in small ways, helps everyone immensely. One of the great things about Arden is how nice it is to get out of your house and enjoy the public spaces. Because of the good work from Safety and other committees, we can do that without having to worry too much about the various hazards we encounter daily.
