Sharlene became active in the non-profit sector to have a positive impact on the welfare of those in Santa Clarita wherever possible early on in life. As a former Miss Santa Clarita and intern for Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich, her service took the form of volunteering and fundraising for organizations such as Single Mothers Outreach, the Chamber of Commerce, YMCA, Student’s Off And Running and more. In 2019 Sharlene served as the Manager-At-Large for JCI Santa Clarita, helping support the Executive team. She also serves as a member of the William S Hart School District Bond Measure SA Oversight Committee and sits on several local boards and committees such as the WiSH Education Foundation, NextSCV, College of the Canyons Alumni Committee and College of the Canyons Foundation Board. Sharlene is currently serving as JCI Santa Clarita’s 23rd President. Her quote that she lives by is, “the meaning of life is finding your gift; the purpose of life is giving it away.”
