My name is Carmen Garnica. I am a long-time Radio Producer in the Spanish Language Tuesday programing at KBOO 90.7 FM. I was invited to become a part ot the Tonalli Radio Co-Op by co- producer Ivonne Rivero, who was aware of the work and community engagement I had been carrying on for many years in the Latinx and Native-American communities.
The purpose of this letter is to let you know I have been invited to be part of this Board of Directors as an Interim Director.I am interested, I have the time and the willingness to learn, participate and contribute my time and vision for a more equitable radio and community organization.

Hi my name is Emma I have served on Kboo's board twice before. I am currently a member of the union management bargaining committee, governance committee and finance committee. I have also semi regularly attended programming committee. I am also part of the group Save KBOO which still meets from time to time to talk about KBOO's culture and is a space to have honest community conversations about KBOO. I am also a programmer with the Prison Pipeline Collective and Transpositive PDX. I have been active at KBOO for about seven years. I already serve on the board of two other organizations so I hadn't planned on being active on the Board at KBOO again, but I was asked if I could consider it. I can serve as a board member and continue my work with the Union Management Committee and Finance Committee but I wouldn't be available at this time for a leadership position on the board or executive committee but you could count on me for participation in board activities. I will have a scheduling conflict with another board I serve on which meets at the same time as this board so I may not be able to attend all board meetings. A priority for me if I were chosen to serve on the KBOO board would be to reopen KBOO and to support the interim station manager until such time as KBOO is ready to hire a regular station manager. I would also support moving KBOO toward a flat leadership structure in which the station manager is more of a coordinator of staff within the broader context of KBOO's culture.

Greetings! My name is Josh Roberts and I currently serve on the Board of Directors at KBOO. I live with my family in West Linn which has been our home for the better part of 7 years. I currently work as a consultant and project manager for Legacy Medical Group. I have a passion for music that stretches back over 40 years to my childhood in Ohio. My musical interests span most genres but jazz, blues, classic rock, electronic, industrial, alternative, metal, classic country, and folk stand out the most. For my service at KBOO, I'm looking forward to marrying up my love of music with my experience in leadership and governance.
As a past not-for-profit board trustee, I want to bring a host of governance skills to the station. Also, as a community member and volunteer in Portland for the past 23 years, I have a familiarity with our city and region including their progressive and changing atmosphere and special place in the hearts and minds of the community. Finally, as a business leader whose roles have involved embracing creativity and diversity in the workplace, I've led or participated in myriad events and activities that celebrate the spectrum of civic interests and cultures.

My name is Joyce Nance and I'm a KBOO board member because I believe I can help. My background in various jobs, hobbies, and passions fit with KBOO. I understand KBOO's humble beginnings and its continued path towards growth. I believe in the power of communication and I appreciate KBOO's big tent philosophy and the voice it provides for underrepresented persons and causes in the Portland community
My background helps KBOO in a variety of ways. First of all, I understand business pretty well. I have a bachelor's degree in business/accounting from San Francisco State and worked as a senior accountant for many years. I also ran my own video post-production business for over a decade where I had many employees and performed all of the company's financial, HR, sales, and tech functions for my company.
I've also had many other jobs and endeavors through the years. Right now, I work part time on America's number one progressive talk radio show. It's a Monday thru Friday three hour live show, and as a result of working on this show I have increased both my A/V technical skills and my knowledge of politics. I have a creative side as well. I perform stand up comedy around Portland as well as co-hosting a weekly political podcast called Not Right In The Head. I have written six books, including a couple in the True Crime genre. I am currently serving on the Finance, Engineering, Program, and Executive committees. I'm also the board Treasurer.
