Hello all, I come to you again soliciting your support as a candidate for the position of Board Member of the League of American Bicyclists. This journey has consisted of personal and professional growth, all the while affording me the opportunity to sit amongst the leaders not only in the cycling industry but mobility and pedestrian safety as a whole.
During my time on the Board, my goal has been to keep the mission of League at the forefront of the ever changing cycling movement via community engagement, various levels of government participation and social media presence.
Iβve had the pleasure of serving on the governance committee, the election committee and most important the finance committee. As the past treasurer, it was important to me that our committee worked closely with our Executive Director to blend our shared long-term financial goals while reducing overhead expenditures and increasing overall profits for the League. With the additional resources, we have been able to reintroduce past strategies, implement various educational tools and create new alliances with other industry leaders as they see our organization as the front runner when it comes to being a champion for safe cycling for everyone.
I love that the League encompasses expertise from all walks of life and encourages us as Board Members to apply those experiences and lessons learned to help make our organization stronger.
Iβm looking forward to having the opportunity to continue the trajectory and pace that weβve reestablished as an organization.
Cycle safe,
Torrance Strong π΄π½ββοΈπ
2023 Board Member Candidate
