I occasionally attend City Council meetings. Community activities: Friends of Sunset Park, Surfrider foundation (donor) Qualifications, experience, education, and technical or professional requirements: My best qualification is I spend time at the beach and in the ocean almost every day. I am an avid surfer and frequent the surf in front of Ocean View Park / Ashland. Education - undergrad at UC Santa Barbara ('05) and MBA from UCLA ('11). I have spent the last 6 years (and counting) working for a venture capital fund that invests in renewable energy technologies. I have experience serving on corporate boards, and I currently serve on the board of one of our portfolio companies, SolarReserve - a concentrated solar thermal company based here in Santa Monica. Goals: I would very much like to be a part of the great efforts being made to clean our beaches and oceans. I have been impressed with work the done to capture and clean storm drain water and the efforts to rebuild sand dunes in North Santa Monica. My goal would be to expand on these initiatives and work to share their impact with neighboring cities and beyond (as we know, the Santa Monica Bay is bordered by many cities). For many of us who spend a significant amount of time in the water, there has been demonstrable progress in cleaning the water and returning wildlife to the Santa Monica Bay, but there is more work to be done, particularly after it rains or after hot weekends in the summer. My goal would be to continue these efforts, with a focus on water quality. Vision: As discussed above, my vision for the board is to continue the great work being done by the Board and the city generally towards keeping our beaches and water clean, while finding opportunities to expand this effort. I am strong believer in the need to protect the limited open space that we have, and that our beaches are a defining part of our community. I believe Santa Monica can continue to set an example for the county, state and country in our efforts to integrate nature into our urban environment. As a city, we thankfully have the resources and the will to help develop and test methods of water and beach reclamation and development/beach integration that can not only make our city better, but set an example for others. Personal Qualities: Personally, I am the oldest of five very close siblings and have always been the leader in this group. Educationally, getting an MBA at UCLA was essentially a two program in working in groups and balancing competing needs - at UCLA I graduated with honors and count many of best friends from that group of people. In addition, my four partners and I were selected by the faculty as having the best thesis project for our work on supply chain management and franchise modeling. Professionally, at a venture capital fund, I work in a field that is based on the efficient allocation of resources and creative solutions to complex problems. As one of our principal goals at the firm, I have worked closely with the firm partners to develop ways to store renewable energy, one of the biggest issues facing the growth of renewable energy.

Member of the System1 Gives Back Committee: I coordinate employee volunteering and corporate philanthropy for my employer Art Goer: I’m a member at LACMA and Cinefamilly. I attended ~50 live concerts over the past year (mostly small DIY community shows!). Qualifications, experience, education, and technical or professional requirements: Strengths: corporate strategy, digital strategy, digital marketing, volunteer + operations management -I’m a product manager at System1, a software startup in Venice where I lead an amazing team of 16 engineers and data scientists. We build online advertising and marketing tools. -Previously, I worked as a product manager at Mint, a personal finance app with over 20 million users. I worked on personal finance recommendations, and helped hundreds of thousands of people work toward their finance goals. -From 2012 to 2014, I served as co-General Manager of KZSU Stanford, a non-profit community radio station. I oversaw 200 diverse volunteers and a $100k yearly budget. -I graduated from Stanford University in 2014 with a B.A. in Economics and a minor in Computer Science. Areas of demonstrated expertise: I’ve significant time along the pier, and studied both news articles and board meeting notes. I have a detailed amateur’s knowledge of issues facing the Pier, which I can effectively combine with my other experiences. As a product manager, I have a working knowledge of strategic planning and marketing: -I’ve worked on product strategy for two software companies, System1 and Mint, and I’ve also consulted with several startups. In these roles, I help set and implement business strategy. I’ve had a successful track record building consumer and business products, and working with large engineering/design/analysis groups. -I have expertise in online marketing; it is literally my job to build online marketing/advertising tools. Additionally, I’ve worked on more traditional public relations at Mint and KZSU, where I created press releases, contacted media outlets, posted social media, etc. Through my experience leading a nonprofit radio station, I have fundraising, event management, and policy/fiduciary experience: -At KZSU, I raised ~$100k each year for station operations. Each year, I lead campaigning efforts to raise the majority of that from student ballot fees. Additionally, I raised tens of thousands of dollars from grants/programs, most notably from the Stanford Fund and Toyota. We finally raised thousands more with coordinated on-air donation messages. -I’ve produced several large events. Most notably, in 2011 and 2012, I worked with Toyota to organize a relatively large KZSU tent at Outside Lands, a 200,000 person musical festival in San Francisco. Collaborating with Toyota and an agency, we organized a stage and craft area with both music and interactive art experiences for visitors. I organized programming with roughly five dozen volunteers from KZSU. Conservatively, tens of thousands of people interacted with us throughout three days. -As a large radio station with 200 volunteers, KZSU has significant logistical and legal, requiring fiduciary and policy oversight. I created and improved station policies. For instance, I helped compile a comprehensive volunteer handbook, set new guidelines for volunteer behavior, and resolved personnel disputes. I also handled complicated operations, like renewing a FCC transmitter license: from the renewal process, I subtly adjusted station programming to better serve and reach the local community, as mandated in the terms of our license. Goals: I’m excited about civic processes and making an impact. I’m not coming in with a specific agenda. I’m excited because the pier is wonderful and important; there are pragmatic way to benefit our larger community through issues like accessibility, events, art, etc.. For example, I totally support Santa Monica’s commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement. It’s not clear how the Pier fits into that commitment, but the pollution and climate impact of the Pier are issues that are personally important and fascinating to work on. Vision: In the long term, the board maximizes the Pier’s value for residents, tourism, education, downtown business, public transit, and more. In the short term, that translates into steady technocratic decisions about infrastructure, twilight concerts, etc.. From prior board minutes, I noticed a couple of personally encouraging things that I would make sure to continue: -the board always takes direct feedback from multiple outside views (such as pier lessees, other commissions/subcommittees, city staff, etc.) -the board is able to produce detailed reports and compromise on larger issues such as the Twilight Concerts Personal Qualities: -As a GM of KZSU, I’ve also rallied large groups of volunteers to create weird, lovely, and innovative projects. For instance, we restarted an old tradition of a yearly ‘Day of Noise,’ in which typically 30+ experimental musicians perform live over 24 hours. We heavily promoted and successfully pulled off a complex (and sleep deprived) event thanks to the coordination of roughly 80 volunteers. Most importantly, we spotlighted a creative local music scene to thousands of listeners around the world. -As a product manager, I have to lead and innovate, but also prioritize between projects which serve different groups and sets of interests. A specific example: I recently gathered requirements and tradeoffs from engineers, analysts, and executives. I ultimately built an impactful platform which optimizes tens of millions of dollars a month in marketing campaigns. I communicated with numerous stakeholders, prioritized a thoughtful risk, and implemented something that paid off. In that process, I deprioritized several other projects, but could work and communicate effectively with other groups to handle that disruption and get important things done.

I worked with Rosie's Girls for several years throughout my teenage years and it taught me leadership and problem solving skills. In 2013, I started working for a marketing company called Vector Marketing. I gained and improved several skills such as; leadership, team building, organization, sales, and management allowing me to move up the ranks fairly quickly. In January of 2017 I got the opportunity to join the team and open the Courtyard By Marriott On 5th and Colorado. I worked the front desk where I further developed my customer service skills. I was on the celebration committee and safety committee, committees that entailed planning all employee events and spreading the word about workplace safety. Currently, I am the Sales Coordinator for the Hampton Inn and Suites. I am in charge of coordinating group sales agreements, establishing and maintaining relationships with our clients, and assisting the Sales Manager and Director of Sales. Areas of demonstrated expertise: 1) Strategic Planning - Vector Marketing Assistant Manager and Recruiting Manager. As an assistant manger I took part in setting goals for the Santa Monica district team and making sure those goals were met. In 2014 we took 1st place in a national sales competition. 7) Event Management - In High school I was part of the retrospective study team for Rosie's Girls. We presented data on the effectiveness of the program in middle school girls. Ive planned smaller scale events such as team meetings, and employee parties. I am currently putting together an event for our top clients 8) I have been working in the Hospitality industry for almost a year. I have learned how to; cater to guest's needs, handle guests concerns, and make sure day to day operations run smoothly 11) I worked for Vector Marketing for 3 years. While working in sales, I was in charge of developing my own clients through word of mouth advertising. 12) I have basic knowledge of Santa Monica. I am interested in being a part of the Santa Monica Pier Corporation to get more involved with the city. I have truly enjoyed working in the Hospitality industry and it has opened my eyes to more of the things the city has to offer. Goals: My goal is to expand my horizons. I want to really take advantage of what the city has to offer, I am never afraid of a challenge and I believe being a part of this committee will help me achieve my life goals. Vision: My vison is to get the younger crowd of Santa Monica involved in what happens with our city. I grew up here and know a lot of young people who struggle to find their voice. I want to be able to bridge the gap between generations and help our youth find their voices. Personal Qualities: I constantly find myself in leadership positions. It's what I am comfortable doing, I started with the Rosie's Girls program. The first spring that I became a camper I knew I wanted to be involved with the program for many years. I moved up to be on the A team, the first step as a leader, and then I moved up to a shop Stewart and then a camp counselor. While in school I always found myself leading group projects. And then there was the management job in my late teens. My current position lets me continue my pattern. I have always had a creative mind. It comes in handy when we encounter challenges in the workplace or when we need that artistic touch on how the holiday decorations look best. My favorite thing about working with a team is the diversity of ideas that are contributed. I have been able to see perspectives I had never thought about while working with a team. I like being able to build an idea up like the snowball effect with a team. Will you be able to commit the necessary time to perform your duties if appointed to the board? yes BUSINESS INFORMATION Occupation: Sales Coordinator Business name: Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica Business address: 501 Colorado Avenue Santa Monica, CA 90401 Business phone: 3102601100 December 9, 2017 Honorable City Council: Twilight Concert Series The Santa Monica Pier Lessee’s Association, representing key stakeholders on the Santa Monica Pier, would like to support the reimagining of the Twilight Concert Series so that the Pier can remain a safe and open place for visitors year-round. We do not believe that the Twilight Concert Series in its current manifestation should continue on or around the Santa Monica Pier. The Twilight Concert Series is a cherished tradition in Santa Monica going back nearly 35 years. The Pier tenants do not wish to see the Twilight Concert Series go away, only that it be retooled to reflect both the needs and limitations of the Pier. Changes sought include rescheduling the series to less trafficked times of the year such as the weeks following Labor Day, a stronger focus on programming that appeals more directly with Santa Monicans and the average Pier goer, and re-evaluating the safety and traffic plans that route patrons onto the Pier and into the fenced area of the concert. We would support a concert series in the fall of 2018 if safety concerns and the negative impact on Pier businesses can be addressed. If that is not enough time to adequately address these concerns, we would then support a hiatus next year with a return in the fall of 2019. If the no-fee ticketing system as suggested in the staff report is adopted, we ask that ½ of the tickets are provided to the members of the SMPLA for distribution to our local customers. This will provide a direct ticket pipeline to locals that support the Pier on a year round basis. Additionally, the Santa Monica Pier Lessees Association represents businesses that are directly affected by large events on and around the Pier including these concerts. We would like to have a representative or representatives actively involved in the planning process for future Twilight Concert Series events so that our needs and concerns are addressed. Pier Corporation Board Vacancies It was the hope of the SMPLA to have a member appointed to the Pier Corp Board, but state law precludes this. While one of our own cannot participate as a board member, after consulting with the city attorney we are confident there are no laws barring our participation on the board working groups. We respectfully request Council to direct the Pier Corporation board to allow a representative of the Item 13A 12/12/2017 Item 13A 12/12/2017 SMPLA to participate in all Pier Corp board working groups with the exception of leasing. Representatives would be assigned by the SMPLA and may or may not be the same representative for all groups. We also feel strongly that having a dedicated SMTT member on the board is imperative for a tourism magnet such as the Santa Monica Pier. Decisions made by the board are far reaching and impact not only the Pier, but city-wide tourism as well. Lastly, after careful consideration, we would like to support the appointment of the following applicants. Misti Kerns – We support Misti for the dedicated SMTT position. Her input and knowledge of the tourism industry, both the advantages and challenges, has been invaluable. We are excited and appreciative at her willingness to remain on the board and to continue to help guide the Pier as it navigates the future. David Newberg – The SMPLA appreciates and understands the challenges our neighbors face due to the success of the Pier. We feel it is important they have a voice at the table and we feel that David can be an effective voice, while also contributing knowledge garnered in his many years of working with Santa Monica businesses and most especially non-profits. As the City examines its overall financial situation, David’s financial acumen will be a valuable asset to the Pier. Nicholas Rolston – Nicholas’ extensive career in Experiential Marketing will help guide us as the Pier seeks new revenue streams to support our local programming. Experiential Marketing also provides us with the ability to enhance the Pier visitor experience in a personal way and we see him as someone who understands the importance of this type of experience for the Pier. His reputation as a problem solver will serve us well, especially since it is combined with the heart and soul of a native Santa Monican. Jeffrey Jarow – Jeff’s long-time commitment to Santa Monica is well known throughout the City and he brings mountains of passion and commitment to every board or commission he has sat on. He keeps his finger on the pulse of the business community in Santa Monica, often going the extra mile to help wherever and whenever he can. Jeff’s enthusiasm and passion will contribute to our position in the local community, especially when coupled with his extensive knowledge of Santa Monica and the people and businesses that inhabit it. Thank you for your consideration on the above and we are happy to respond to any questions you may have. Kind Regards, The Santa Monica Pier Lessees Association Pres. Chris Volaski, Sec.
