About Ricki

I have lived and worked in Nevada County for over 40 years.  My professional career includes several years as a consultant to the California Legislature, an Executive Director for a community based non-profit agency in Nevada County, and most recently, in the private sector, a VP of Real Estate Acquisitions for a large investment trust.  My business experience gave me the opportunity to oversee more than $1 Billion dollars in commercial real estate transactions throughout the United States.  It was my business knowledge that led to my interest in serving at NID.

I have served on the NID Board of Directors since 2018. I am proud to have been appointed to major committees by my NID colleagues including, Labor Negotiations, Administrative Practices, the committee to conduct an executive search for a new General Manager, LAFCO Commissioner, Ad Hoc Committee to negotiate with South Sutter Water Agency for water rights, and the Regional Water Authority.  I also serve as a Board member to my neighborhood Firewise community.  

Serving on these NID committees continues to deepen my knowledge and commitment to NID. I have been honored to serve on all of the committees and to have the trust of my colleagues in representing the Board.  

I am grateful for the support of my loving family - my husband of 25 years, five children and three grandchildren!
