Training for members, Accesability for new users and the organizations sustainability.

2. What specific strengths would you bring to SCNA... ?

I have over 4 years experience serving the members of my community wedged in the digital divide and years of community activism. I am an adult trainer with the daily experience of serving the students, teachers and community users of the Powerful school, Muir and Orca labs.

Maintaining the books and keeping the current financial system in place.

I am currently working in Southeast Seattle at the Powerful Schools Computer lab sites at John Muir and Orca Elementary schools. I also work on the Powerful Schools Computer Giveaway. I teach at the labs and do home visits for computer access and training. I am also on call for Neighborhood Networks (the name change I have not yet assimilated.)
