J. Louis King, Board Member
Louie has had the kind of history that makes him a perfect fit on the Board of Directors! From training chef to head chef at high end restaurants and catering from the Midwest to the Northwest, to market development guru for a food company to a long career on Amtrak, including disaster training, and finally the owner of an art gallery in Port Orchard. At heart Louie is about making connections and building community and Studio 724 is at the heart of his efforts, making it a natural spot for headquartering the Kitsap Resiliency Project.

Ronnie Johnston, Board Member
Ronnie has had a long career with the government, including military service, and retired a few years ago from FEMA. This experience has given him an in depth understanding of both the realities of disaster and the of the governments response to it. This is not to say that the government response is inappropriate, just that nothing exists in a vacuum and that human response to known dancer plays a part as well. This makes Ronnie a perfect member of the Resilient Ecosystem Board, he brings vital insight to the issues and thoughts on addressing them.
