In addition, I work on political campaigns and understand <br /> messaging as it relates to informing voters. I have experience winning and defeating ballot <br /> initiatives. <br /> Please explain your reasons for wanting to serve on this board <br /> I think this is a good opportunity to work with the board to help sell the bond. What messages <br /> matter to voters and the way the messaging needs to be distributed for voters. <br /> How would your particpation on this board contribute to the diversity of viewpoints? <br /> I'm not known as someone who always want to give the school board more money and this bond <br /> seems like a good idea. I think I can help encourage others in the county/district to get behind <br /> this initiative. <br /> Do you have any personal or business interest(s) that could create a conflict of interest <br /> (either real or perceived) if you are appointed to this board? <br /> I run a public affairs business and in the past have worked on ballot initiatives. <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br />
