Biography

As a member of the Women's Fund since 2018, Roberta currently serves as a Board member and the Educational Events Committee Chair. She retired from a long career in public education that encompassed diverse roles in teaching, curriculum and administration at preschool through university levels in Northern California. She loves learning, has a rather nerdy background as a historian educated at UC Davis, and will happily engage anyone in conversation about how the past affects the future. Since moving to Santa Barbara in 2015, she and her husband Matt have been involved with several local not-for-profit agencies in their effort to add value to the community they dearly love.
