A resident of Chino Hills for 30 years, Cynthia has been active in civic and educational organizations since 1995. She has volunteered for the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) at local schools, the District and State levels, and served as the President of the Chino Valley PTA Council, where she chartered three new PTAs in the District and mentored 24 PTA/PTSA presidents. She has also served on various Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) Committees over the years, including the Grade Appeal Panel appointed by the Superintendent, the Calendar Committee, and several administrative interview panels.
