Lynn moved to San Francisco in 1976 from Wisconsin, where earthquakes are rare. She and husband Bob live on Potrero Hill, and finished bolting their house to the foundation two weeks before Loma Prieta! Thanks to neighbors, they discovered NERT training and graduated in 1994. Lynn has edited the NERTNews since 1998, has served on the Board for 12 of her 14 years as a NERT, and has been instrumental in developing advanced training courses and the Field Operations Guide for NERT. She also serves on the Board's Media/Public Information/Events and Training Committees.
Shelley Carroll, Coordinator Chair
Shelley joined the NERT Advisory Board in January 2009. She is a former coordinator of the South Beach NERT Team, and remains a member of its planning team. As of January 2010, she serves as Coordinator Chair and chair of the Coordinator Development Committee. A retired UCSF perioperative nurse, Shelley keeps busy with continuing nursing organizational activities. In addition to her focus on disaster preparedness, she is involved in Project Homeless Connect, the San Francisco Homeless Service Providers Network, and the ongoing efforts for fair elections and healthcare reform.

From 2005 through 2006, Edie served as neighborhood coordinator for Ingleside NERT. When not volunteering with NERT, Edie works as a legal writer and researcher. Her spare time is devoted to helping spouse, Pam, and super kitties, Markie and Blazer get into trouble.
Maxine Fasulis
Maxine joined the Board just before the turn-of-the century (the last one, not the 19th). She serves as Neighborhood Coordinator for Noe Valley NERT and has done so since the late 1990's. When not hounding fellow San Franciscans to take NERT training or fellow Noe NERTs to attend mini-drills and team meetings, Max heads for the hills to ski the steepest and deepest with her crew: Capt. Jack, Roxy Girl, CB, Bunks, Ms. Candace, Dr. D. et al.
Diane Rivera
Diane joined the NERT Advisory Board in June, 2009. NERT trained in 2003, Diane serves as Neighborhood Coordinator for the Sunset Parkside District. Besides working with her team to bring disaster preparedness awareness to their neighbors, she is also interested in disaster communications and actively practices her ham radio skills. A native San Franciscan from the Sunset District, Diane is a finance professional working in the non-profit world. When not busy promoting the NERT program, Diane spends time with her children and "grands". Her hobbies include geology, mineral collecting, backcountry travel, hiking, backpacking, dancing...having fun.
