Dear Friends and Neighbors of Lake Fairways,
Hello! I am Diana Ferrucci, a resident at Lake Fairways in 5B. I am writing to express my interest in the position with the Lake Fairways HOA board. I believe an HOA member should demonstrate a passion and devotion to their communities – and I have for over 30 years!
I have solid professional skills in technology, and customer service. I moved to Lake Fairways from Connecticut in 2018. I was formerly with Macy’s for 25+ years and managed technology for two warehouses with over 900 colleagues. Prior to Macys, I worked in banking operations for 15+ years. I have 40+ years of customer service and help desk experience - understanding communication is critical to help resolve any issue. It’s all about follow-up and accountability. I earned a reputation to being the “go-to” person, reliable and quick to action/remedy issues.
I devoted many years volunteering with Macy’s Partners in Time Program. My position was Co-Chair, with a committee of 30. We held several fundraisers per year, assisted at soup kitchens and volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House. I learned very quickly how volunteering brings joy to both the giver and the receiver! In 2004, I was one of Macy’s ‘Volunteers of the Year’ and participated in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade 6 times, as a clown and as balloon handler. In 2010, I was a celebrity dancer, representing Macy’s in the Ronald McDonald Dancing Under the Stars fundraiser, and raised $3,000. Since moving to Florida, I have partnered with the Ronald McDonald House in SWFL and have spent several Wednesdays baking for the families there.
The last couple of years I have become involved with LF community. I was in Take a Bow for 2 seasons and helped with prior HOA elections. Currently, I am my cul de sac captain of 5,6, 10 and 11 for LF Resident Photobook, assist on The Informer, volunteer with CERT and active in the Women’s Club.
A few months ago, several neighbors inspired (actually cheered me on) to apply for the position on the HOA board. That was all the support and encouragement I needed!
I believe my experience, knowledge, communication, and interpersonal abilities would make me an excellent fit for this position. I look forward to speaking with you more about this position and how my qualifications can make a substantial contribution.
I hope you will consider me as being ‘your voice’ for our community.
Thank you
Diana Ferrucci
