Heather is running for her second year as President of the Montlake Community Club and has served on the MCC for a total of 3 years. With a professional background in growing non-profit organizations, she has experience in philanthropy, board operations and project management. Heather plans to continue the good work of the MCC with a focus on improving transportation and safety in the neighborhood. She is also interested in growing and diversifying the MCC board and volunteer pool. Heather and her spouse, Eric, moved to Montlake 10 years ago and continue to be delighted to discover what a great neighborhood they selected. Heather loves her neighbors, frequents “Downtown Montlake”, and adores the Arboretum.

John and his wife have been Montlake residents since 1979 and raised three children in the neighborhood.

John’s wife, Carol Cordy, is currently serving as the MCC Board Treasurer.

Carol and her family have lived in Montlake for 41 years. Her children attended Montlake Elementary School. She has been active over the years in several volunteer activities, including volunteering at Montlake Elementary. Carol joined the board to become more active in community projects.

Matt lives on Boyer Ave E with his wife (Mia), dog (Archie) and cat (Edie). They moved to the neighborhood in May 2018 and enjoy the proximity to the surrounding parks and waterfront. Matt is a graduate of UW and works in finance and technology. Matt’s goals on the board would be to drive better awareness of the neighborhood’s rich history, preserve the precious green spaces, reduce litter and advance the business presence. All to be achieved by greater community participation, social engagement, and alliances with other organizations. 

I have lived in Montlake for the past 22 years (at the corner of 23rd Ave E and Boyer). I am a family medicine physician (a colleague of Carol Cordy), teaching at the Swedish Family Medicine Residency Program and working at the Downtown Public Health Clinic. My professional interests include healthcare for homeless and other marginalized populations, as well as refugee and asylee health. I have worked on the Health Care for the Homeless Planning Council, and now its Community Advisory Group, for the past 20 years. My interests outside of work include hiking, birding, gardening and photography.

Chris has been a Montlake resident since 2013. Chris joined the board to serve Montlake and help protect what is special about the neighborhood while working to make sure inevitable changes are positive. Chris is an active runner and cyclist who is familiar with pedestrian safety and bicycle and traffic issues.

Danny and his wife moved to Montlake from Green Lake in the summer of 2015.  Being involved in real estate, Montlake always appealed to Danny because of its central location and quick access to freeways and other arterials.  Of course, the adorable neighborhoods and houses oozing with character didn’t go unnoticed.  Not to mention being an avid UW supporter, walking to and from home games is a huge plus!  What they’ve learned to love most about Montlake in their time as residents is the community bonding and annual events including the Turkey Trot and yard sale.
