Some of Diana’s Aspirations & Dreams
I have been focused on achieving results and bringing people together throughout my life. I have lived in Atherton for 26 years and have both worked and raised my family here. My daughter recently returned to the area to attend Stanford. My youngest attends a local middle school—remotely for the foreseeable future. We are all working to address new health concerns related to the pandemic and navigate what feels like too many worrisome events, such as the forest fires that are currently raging in our area.
As a new member to the Atherton City Council, I want to help address long term solutions to these and many other issues and help make certain Atherton remains a wonderful, secure and serene place to live.
I envision a better tomorrow, when we can gather without our masks, in our lovely new Town Center which features as open space that will allow us to come together to connect and build community.
