I have lived in Lafayette since 2012 and have a 10th-grade daughter at Acalanes. My daughter's interest in music was sparked by her 4th-grade LPIE Music strings class, and I feel grateful that LPIE provided that opportunity. I believe in the power of community and volunteerism and serve as a Lafayette Transportation and Circulation Commissioner and General Plan Advisory Committee member. I joined the LPIE Board to help grow support for our schools. Green Hills, Great Schools!
