For me, DBG is a treasure for our community; it showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Southwest in the middle of our busy metropolitan area. I love walking through the gates. As a trustee, I am honored to be included in a talented and energetic group of supporters who have made prudent decisions to protect and enhance the Garden over decades. This includes building the high caliber professional leadership at the Garden. I am excited for the Garden’s future, as it grows with our young community.
