Please explain any employment experience, board/committee experience, and/or community volunteer experience
relative to the board/committee applying for.
I was on the board of St Paul's Catholic School for a period of six years which dealt with a budget of over$1.5
million. I was president for three of the years leading a board of five other persons. I was also the treasurer and
board member of L'Arche Harbor House which is comprised of Christ centered homes for the mentally and
physically disabled adults. For the last 32 years,I have been and I am currently administering and enforcing the tax
laws of this country as an attorney/manager for the Office of Chief Counsel—IRS by providing the necessary legal
advice. I currently lead and review a group of seven attorneys. As a result of these experiences, I think I have a
strong background in law enforcement and finances.
Please provide a brief explanation of your interest or any special qualifications you have in this field and your reasons
for wishing to be appointed to this board/committee.
See above for some qualifications. It has been at least 4 years since I was on a community board or committee and I
want to again serve my community in this way. I believe I have the background for law enforcement and finances
from my experiences as an attorney with the Office of Chief Counsel and from my prior board experiences.
Additionally, I want to become more familiar with our city government and its operation as I, at some future date,
may consider running for a Commissioner's post.
