Executive Board

Anne has worked as a nonprofit professional for nine years, and is a do-gooder at heart with a passion
for connecting good people to good causes. 

Anne worked for a community foundation for five years before taking on the role of Executive Director at Gay For Good, a nonprofit that mobilizes LGBTQ+ and ally volunteers in the broader community. Under Anne's leadership the nonprofit has grown from ten to nineteen chapters in less than four years. 

Anne holds a BA in Communication Studies from California State University Long Beach and currently
sits on the Executive Board for the Long Beach LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce. Anne has two grown
children and resides in Long Beach, CA, with her wife Kelli and their two cats.

Twenty six years ago, I was introduced into the world of graphic design and marketing and fell deeply in love with the idea of creative design and how it influences us in our daily lives.  My life has taken me on a roller coaster ride through growing up Catholic to Bible College and becoming a pastor for a small Evangelical community in the Central Valley.  I've spent the last 19 years off and on in Fresno, and recently relocated to my hometown of Cerritos, where I have established my business as a professional web and graphic designer.

I have three older children, am divorced from my spouse of 19 years, and identify as a queer transgender woman.  I am so excited to be a part of this chamber!
