About Lena
Lena is a Lake Oswego parent with three children in the district, all at Lake Grove Elementary, where she served as the treasurer of the Lake Grove PTA for the 2022-23 and 2023-24 school years.
Lena has 20 years of experience in accounting and finance, and hopes to bring her deep understanding of budgets and financial management to Lake Oswego School District.
She also served as board member for Up On Top, an after school program in San Francisco, and as a volunteer in the district and at Lake Grove.
“Too often, we have to fight to be heard. There is a clear gap between what families want and the decisions being made. I want to bridge that gap.”
