City Limits <br /> Gender Identity: Female <br /> Ethnic Background: White <br /> Age Range: 35-59 <br /> Community Activities/Organizational Memberships: <br /> Member of the Porch Advisory Board <br /> Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br /> I have not served on an Orange County Advisory Board <br /> Boards/Commissions applied for: <br /> Orange County Housing Authority <br /> Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br /> I am a Section 8 voucher recipient. I have experience with applying for most of the housing help <br /> available in Chapel Hill, local and federal assistance (public housing), as well as various non for <br /> profits like Community Home Trust and Habitat for Humanity. I know what is out there and I <br /> know what it is like to be in the program and dependent. I have a degree in Dance from UNC <br /> Greensboro and graduated magna cum laude. I also studied other subject areas including <br /> psychology and environmental studies. I lived in a shelter in Chapel Hill with my daughter for 6 <br /> months. I know what it is to be homeless and bounce from place to place for years. I know the <br /> difficulty and struggle as well as the humiliation of it. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I am passionate about housing, home ownership, making life better for people, and making <br /> housing better and more stable for people, others as well as myself. Because of my life <br /> experience, I have a deep understanding of the challenges with getting housing as well as a <br /> vision of how things could be better. It is not conceptual or abstract for me, it is experiential and <br /> tangible as well as personal. <br /> Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br /> I dona€T"'t know who else is on the board so I cannot answer with assurance, but I would bring <br /> my perspective that has a lot of passion behind it and may be unique based on who I am and the <br /> life experience I have had. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> I may not feel fully comfortable expressing myself freely because as a recipient of public <br /> assistance, I am in a dependent and vulnerable position. <br />
