Member, Chapel Hill <br />Chamber of Commerce; Hillsborough Chamber of Commerce; Association for Corporate <br />Growth - Raleigh Durham Chapter Member, Bull City Forward, a co- working incubator <br />setting for social entrepreneurs. Co- organized a breakfast focused on entrepreneurship <br />for the Hillsborough Chamber and Orange County Schools, March 2011. 1 am passionate <br />about pushing forward Orange County's economic development efforts. I see this as a <br />social justice issue in that we're creating jobs for those who live here or want to live here. I <br />also see economic development as critical to nurture if we want to continue offering the <br />quality of life we already have while also expanding efforts in other areas -- social <br />services, recreational opportunities for residents. We must have a county -wide <br />perspective while respecting the unique characteristics of each area or municipality within. <br />It would be an honor to serve. <br />STAFF COMMENTS: Applied 05/31/2012 for Ecoomic Development Advisory Board. <br />ADDRESS VERIFICATION: 5401 Hough Road is in bingham Township, Orange County <br />Jurisdiction, and Rural Buffer Zone. <br />This application was current on: 2/25/2014 Date Printed: 5/16/2014 <br />
