During that time, I have focused much of my energy on ensuring that OCERS' operations are efficient and effective. I spent eight years on the Board’s Governance Committee ensuring that appropriate administrative policies and procedures are in place. I was instrumental in establishing our Personnel Committee, which provides a deeper level of board oversight on the personnel issues affecting OCERS.
