Candidate Information:
Originally from the New England states, I graduated from the University of Hartford with a degree in accounting. Over a 34-year career with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, including retiring as a partner in 2018, I gained extensive experience across multiple industries and four major metropolitan areas.
For eight months each year, my husband Michael and I, along with our golden retriever, reside in Sea Pines, an area for which we have developed a strong appreciation since our visits began in 2014. We became homeowners in Sea Pines in 2017, and spend the remainder of the year in Kennebunkport, Maine.
In Fall 2022, I was elected to the Sea Pines CSA Board and commenced my term in January 2023. At my inaugural meeting, I was appointed Treasurer, a position I have held to the present time.
Why I Wish to Serve the Sea Pines Community:
With my credentials as a Certified Public Accountant, prior not-for-profit board involvement, and ongoing service on the Sea Pines CSA Board since 2023, I am well-qualified for re-election to the CSA Board. Upon my election to the CSA Board in 2023, I assumed the role of Treasurer. My contributions to the community are detailed elsewhere within my application materials.
- Looking ahead, I have outlined several priorities for my continued service on the Board:
- Maintain a leadership position within the CSA Board.
- Enhance oversight of financial forecasting processes to ensure Sea Pines’ long-term fiscal stability.
- Further strengthen relationships with community stakeholders through transparent and consistent financial communication.
- Supervise the implementation of procedures that ensure Board reporting is process-driven versus being reliant on specific Board members.
At this critical juncture for Sea Pines CSA, prioritizing the allocation of operating and reserve funds toward key capital and infrastructure projects is essential, as is monitoring the punctual and on-budget completion of all initiatives. Upcoming challenges include addressing the reconfiguration of Greenwood Drive access and the Greenwood gate, which currently lack funding and will require attention in the near future.
