I am Lisa Willis James

---

With over 25 years of residency in Berkeley, I have dedicated my life to the growth and well-being of our community. As a mother of five children who all graduated from our local schools, I am deeply invested in the success of our families. My decades of service include:

• Youth Advocacy: Over 20 years of service with the Berkeley Parks and Recreation Redbird Rookies program.

• Educational Leadership: Active member of the Holman Elementary PTO and the McCluer South Berkeley PTSO (2006–2019).

• Athletics & Arts: Co-founded the Berkeley Middle School Girls Basketball program; served as Football Team Mother (2006–2019) and Band Parent Booster (2015–2019) at McCluer South Berkeley.

• Mentorship: Longtime Girl Scout Leader and community volunteer.

I have been a neighbor, a leader, and an advocate for a quarter-century. Now, I am asking for your support to serve as your next Council Person.
