Having fallen in love with the Eastern Sierras during countless trips in their self-built camper van for rock climbing adventures, Darlene and her husband decided to make the area home. In her downtime, Darlene loves heading outdoors with her rescue dogs to explore the breathtaking landscapes. 

With over a decade of nonprofit leadership experience, Darlene has spearheaded community engagement programs, fundraising initiatives, and strategic planning efforts that drive lasting impact. Darlene is excited to bring this experience and hands-on dedication to the Mammoth Lakes Recreation board.
