WNC Board Members

In my professional career, I am the Training and Development Manager for a Residential Mortgage Lender. Throughout my many years in the industry, I have gained tremendous professional growth in the leadership capacity. My years of experience have taught me integral problem solving skills, conflict resolution and how to see projects through from start to finish no matter the size. My leadership skills also extend beyond my professional career where I am on the Board of Directors for my Toastmasters International club and am a small business owner. Being active in programs outside of my career are critical as I continue to increase my skills and service the community as a volunteer.

Resident of the San Fernando Valley since 2002 and Winnetka since 2011. My previous career was in Urban Planning covering approximately 10 years of experience working in four different Municipalities.

One of the founders of the Winnetka Neighborhood Council. Involved in community organizations, including the Winnetka Chamber of Commerce, and local and civic groups along with being a member of the governing council of 3 public schools including an elementary, middle, and high school.

My background is mostly a 40 year career in the entertainment business. I started working in live theatre in college as a lighting and sound designer; I spent a summer at La Jolla Playhouse as a member of the stage crew; and entered the film industry in California in 1965 as an electrician at Paramount Studios. I spent most of my working career as an Assistant Director, managing the planning and filming of film television series, mini-series, and feature films all over the Los Angeles area and also in other parts of the US and Canada. Carolyn, my wife, and I moved to Winnetka in 1971 and still live in the same home we bought new. We have two grown girls, one of then still lives in Winnetka. We were both active in the Girl Scouts when they were young, and are still supporting members. (Carolyn is still very active in the Scouts). We both currently support and volunteer at the Motion Picture Television Fund campus in Woodland Hills. I have a solid working knowledge of photography, sound, computers, and computer graphics.

My name is Ajantha Sriramya. As an immigrant, I have successfully overcome numerous challenges while trying to make a new beginning in this country. These struggles have not only given me unique perspectives and practical experiences in problem solving they have strengthened my resolve to make a positive contribution to my community. In addition, I have been actively engaged in civic, charitable, and cultural activities and have acquired a variety of essential skills, such as team building, negotiation and conflict resolution, which I believe would be great assets should I be elected to serve on the Board of the Neighborhood Council.
