Elizabeth Durham McPherson (they/them)

Board Chair 

I grew up near 45th and Division, and spent my childhood playing in Creston Park and taking violin lessons at the Community Music Center. My wife and I have lived in Creston-Kenilworth since 2009, first as renters and now as homeowners.

In addition to serving on the neighborhood association board I am also involved with the Grout PTA. I believe in neighbors helping neighbors, and building strong inclusive communities from the ground up.

Rachel Davies (she/her)

Outreach and Communications Chair

I moved to Creston-Kenilworth in 2008 and immediately fell in love with the quiet, laid-back friendliness of the neighborhood. 

I have a B.A. in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry, from Oberlin College in Ohio, and an M.S. in Biology from Arizona State University.  ​

John Legler (he/him)

Member at Large 

I have been interested in sustainable living and community resilience for most of my life. Upon my retirement, I was able to relocate from Minnesota and join an eco-village here in Creston-Kenilworth.  I spend much of my time tending to both my individual garden and our community gardens.  As a renter and a cyclist,  I am a proponent of affordable housing, and walk-able, bike-friendly neighborhoods.

I am an active member of Portland's Neighborhood Emergency Team, and am currently Co-Leader of the Creston-Kenilworth Team.  I am also the Chairperson of CKNA's Community Preparedness and Resilience Committee.
