I wish to serve on the board to be a voice for my community as well as to get an understanding
of the decision
making process. I was raised in the Carrboro Chapel Hill community and have resided here all
my life. I feel I
would be an asset to the community by sitting on the board and would represent the needs of
the community.
Being a native of this area I ve watched and seen growth and would love to give back to the
community with
the future growth. I would appreciate the opportunity to serve my neighbors and community.
Thank you! Class
of 88CHHS ;)

Boards/Commissions applied for:
Chapel Hill Planning Commission
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I have a Masters degree in Architecture. I have worked in Architecture in both large and small
firms. I worked at URS in Columbus, Ohio where the engineering was done in house. I had the
opportunity while there to be a part of very large projects that impacted the community. Part of
my job involved making sure that the building codes were adhered to. I have been a part of
community discussions on planning on both sides of the table. I think that experience would be
useful on the Planning Commission.
I have lived in various places. We moved to Chapel Hill from Germany. Living in another country
can open your eyes to different ways a community can be and what can be possible. I have
been a part of many different pieces of Chapel Hill. I have been an assistant to local artists. I
am a substitute in the local school system. I am a certified teacher in mathematics in the state of
NC. I have had a child in the public, private, and now homeschooling group here in Chapel Hill.
While part of the Community Design Commission I have taken developers on tours of Chapel
Hill more than once. My knowledge of NC and other areas has given me the ability to explain to
developers what could be. For instance I was able to explain to the developers of the Shortbread
Lofts that they owed a streetscape to Rosemary Street. What followed from those discussions in
the Design Commission later developed into great attention to Rosemary Street. I became a
Certified Document Technologist (CDT)while at URS which means I have studied the code and
had being clear, complete, and concise drilled into me. I have written specifications for
14

architectural projects. I have been a part of committees where various views are expressed and
been a part of coming to a consensus. I have planned and worked with a school in implementing
a student planted green roof and organized students planting 21 trees on their school property.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
While being on the Community Design Commission and living in Chapel Hill, I have observed
the effects of the Planning Commission on the community. I would love to join this insightful
group as they plan the future for the people in Chapel Hill. I would like to be involved in the
discussions while the decisions and recommendations to council are being made. I think I could
provide another perspective and insight into the decisions of the planning board especially with
the background I have. I think that there should be a voice of a person that has worked this
closely with design and planning of the built environment on the planning board.
