Board of Directors

Christina got her commuting bike at Sharing Wheels in 2021 and used our DIY tools to install fenders (a necessity for a year-round bike commuter). In 2022 we recruited her to join the board. She was elected board president in 2024.

Christina works as a community engagement specialist for Community Transit. She is the vice chair of the City of Everett’s Transportation Advisory Committee.

She has volunteered with Everett Bike Walk and participated in Bike Everywhere Day, Week Without a Car, and Ride in the Rain.

Christina has served the Bayside Neighborhood Association as chair, treasurer and secretary. She appreciates the positive impact biking can have for people and communities.

“I see public transportation, biking, and walking as the future that cannot only change our city but also help globally with climate issues.”

Ralph first found out about Sharing Wheels while dropping off mask donations during COVID. He is involved with the Community Foundation of Snohomish County and even before joining the board in 2023, he helped us secure a grant from the Robert Killingstad Foundation.

While not a big bicyclist himself, Ralph appreciates the work we do in the community. He is a retired Boeing Engineering Fellow and has served on many advisory boards in the past. His vision for Sharing Wheels is that we spread the word about our free services and needs (like business sponsors and better shop space), and find a new location in the next 5 years.

Colleen joined the board in 2024 and immediately took on the job of treasurer. She has been a Sharing Wheels volunteer for several years, helping out at community events including Sorticulture, Mobile Bike Clinics and the Everett Farmers Market.

Colleen is a retired aerospace engineer and manager who lives in Everett. She has previous experience on boards and community organizations.

Bio coming soon.

Steve joined the board at the beginning of 2017. He previously served as board treasurer and vice president.

As a board member, Steve has kept our mission and the needs of people who rely on bikes for transportation at the forefront, while also emphasizing “No money, no mission.” He has reached out to and volunteered with the Everett Port Gardner Rotary which has supported Sharing Wheels with annual grants for several years.

Steve is a retired airline pilot who continues to travel the world, now on his own schedule. For Steve, bicycling is his ‘Happy Place’, but he also recognizes many people cycle for basic transportation and he strongly supports our mission to serve low income people. Steve is married 42 years and has 2 grown children.

Carol brings a lifelong interest in cycling and a desire to support the local cycling community as she joins the Sharing Wheels board in 2025.

A recently retired CPA, Carol’s experience includes working in public and private accounting, as well as having her own accounting business. She also served on the Everett Public School Board of Directors for 12 years and for the past 20 years has been Treasurer for the Citizens for Everett Public Schools helping to support bonds and levies to benefit our local schools. She is an avid reader and proud member of the long- standing Woman’s Book Club and served as President of the 130- member organization for the past two years.

In her retirement, Carol plans to reengage with her love of bicycling with the (possible?) goal of completing her fourth STP ride in the coming years. She also hopes to share her enthusiasm for biking with her two young granddaughters and spend time riding the bike trails in the area.

Carol looks forward to working with an organization that is building a strong cycling culture in our community and especially appreciates Sharing Wheel’s commitment to serving those most in need in their providing of donated bikes and services.
