Co-Chair
Linda Jinks
I was born and raised in Vancouver. My work as a realtor provided me with the opportunity to see many amazing neighbourhoods. As an avid gardener, dog owner & nature lover, West Southlands is the perfect fit for both myself and my family.I am honoured to represent this community.
Co-Chair
Mary Tataryn
I am a mother of two adult children and we as a family moved to West Southlands because of all the nature surrounding the neighbourhood. We walk and cycle the trails along the Fraser River and Musqueam Park almost every day. I became a director and eventually co-chair of our residents association because I want to continue advocating to make our neighbourhood better for all residents!
Director
Rhona Raskin
I have been a resident of West Southlands since
Director
Troy Iwanik
I have spent countless hours walking the trails and enjoying the beauty that West Southlands has to offer. It is truly an amazing part of Vancouver! I am married to Marilla, with two young boys, Tyus and Zander. I want to ensure the neighbourhood stays safe and beautiful. I am an investment advisor with iA Private Wealth thus I have a keen eye for detail, and matters related to finance. I have served on the Board of Directors for the West End Seniors Network previously, and currently serve as Strata President on my condo board.

Director
Kay Teschke
I moved to Vancouver in my early 20s and have now lived in the city for 50 years, over 30 here in West Southlands. When I retired from UBC, my husband and I expected to move away, but every time we looked elsewhere, we realized how much we'd miss the river, the forest, and most of all, our wonderful neighbours.
Director
Cynthia Fung
My family and I moved to the west Southlands neighbourhood more than 20 years ago, attracted by its proximity to UBC and easy access to trails and parks. I love nature and enjoy spending time in my garden. My home is my sanctuary but as a realtor, I also treasure it as my investment. It's a great honour for me to serve the community as a Board Director.
