Since I joined the Sierra Club in 2000, I have gained extensive experience in executive service and leadership while serving at the group and chapter levels, most recently as Chapter Vice Chair and Chair over the last two years. In these most recent roles, I demonstrated leadership while working with other chapter leaders and staff to recruit volunteers for many important positions in the Chapter, including social media coordinator, editor and writers for our electronic newsletter, grant writer, and litigation coordinator. I also recruited volunteers to serve on and revamp our transportation and open space/sprawl committees. As Chapter Chair, I have fostered innovative programs which will help us grow as an organization and become more effective in achieving our goals.
I am a pragmatic and supportive leader, team player, and mentor who encourages members and supporters to get involved. I bring to the Executive Committee the energy and ideas necessary to achieve our Chapter’s conservation, legislative, and political goals. Fellow Chapter leaders and colleagues frequently tell me they appreciate my leadership and that I’m doing a great job. I seek your vote to continue serving on the Executive Committee and work for our members and supporters across the state. riddleriddle@gmail.com
