_____________________________________________________________

This letter is in response to the application for the California delegation to the national party.I joined the Green Party on their petition drive to be recognized by the State of California. I have been active in the Green Party in Napa County since 1996.

I have attended many state plenary conferences, help form the Marin, Sonoma and Napa alliance of Greens, contributed to local and state issues, and first proposed the Amnesty of Soldiers platform which was adopted by the State Green Party. The Green Party maintains my values and I am committed to serving and actively campaigning for the 10 Key Values. I am active in local politics and in the community. I often represent the Green Party on issues before City Council and in the press.

I own Green Team Wisdom and ArtfulRelations, a green consulting company. I am co-owner of Art & Clarity, a green photography and video company. To the best of my ability, I welcome the opportunity to act as a delegate for the California Green Party.
