Susan Drake moved to Sonoma in 1976 and has always been enthusiastically
involved with this vibrant community.  Her training as a Psychiatric Clinical Nurse
Specialist allowed her to connect with the children and families of Sonoma
through her counseling practice.  She has served on several Boards, and
especially impressive was her eight years with the Board of the Sonoma Valley
Health Center.  During that time, the Board secured funding and managed the
construction of a facility that now serves Sonoma Valley as a Federally Qualified
Health Center (FQHC).  As a longtime avid supporter of Sonoma Arts Live,
Susan is looking forward to serving on its Board.
