Your Boardmembers

I am a lifetime resident of Soro.

From 2004 – 2010 I served as a member of the South Robertson Neighborhoods Council. I served 5 years as Vice President or Acting President. For that period I was Chairman of the following committees: Executive, Public Safety & By-Laws. I was also a member of the Land Use Committee and the Outreach Committee.

I was re-elected to the Board in October, 2012. My focus for the next four years will be quality of life in our community. Specifically Public Safety, programs for both young people and for retirees, and the economic revitalization of the Soro Business Community.

Olga Lexell has lived in South Robertson since 2014 and worked here since 2012. She works in entertainment and media. Her priorities include increased affordable housing, homelessness outreach, tenants' rights, direct aid, improved bus service, minimizing reliance on cars, expansion of bicycle lanes, and green space preservation. She serves as Land Use Co-Chair, and is part of the Outreach and Transportation committees.

I have lived in this neighborhood all of my 70 plus years and have been a community activist for most of my adult life. I attended Canfield Elementary school, Palms Junior High and Hamilton High School. I have an AA degree in photography from Santa Monica College. I have worked as a photographer here on the Westside for over thirty five years. By working in the community, I believe, we can make this a better neighborhood to live in for all of us.

Occupation: Photographer - events, architecture and portraits
