I have worked since I was 10. I grew up in Brazil and came to the United States 30 some years ago. I had a pottery business which the Earthquake destroyed. I hada successful hair salon for many years. I retired and my husband and I fish a lot! I have tenacity!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just keerp trying. That is why my husband and I catch a lot of fish. I will bring my tenacity to making sure the Harbor is a place that is hassle free. I will examine the Harbor budget and eliminate waste. I will support good projects like having electronic keys for the gates to the docks and making sure to do what it takes to keep the Harbor open all year.
I know how to get the maximun return for the minium amount of money. My boat is an example of this. My boat is a old fishing boat made some 40 years ago. I bought it for 6 times less than the average fishing boat in the Harbor. My husband and I worked hard to reinforce the fiberglass on the bottom of my boat and on the back transom of my boat. We did the work ourselves. The cost per fish I catch off of my boat is a lot less than the cost per fish caught on other fishing boats in the Harbor. I will use the same financial skills I use in life to examine the money being spent in the Hafrbor and make sure we are getting the maxiimun benefit for the minium expenditure. When I have my motor worked on that is on my boat I go to the best mechanic and have everything done right. You have to have common since on what you can save on and what you need to be sure is done right even though it may cost you a lot. I have a lot of common since!!!!!!!!
