Eileen Scudder-Zimmermann

Sarasota is home to my husband and me now. We know we are very lucky to live in such a vibrant and beautiful place where people really care about protecting our most valuable resources: our natural lands and waters that sustain us. I am rewarded every day for the work of Big Waters and for the small part I can play in it especially when we involve so many other community members in our efforts. We really feel now like we are home, so we will waste no time in making sure we protect it always.

Eileen joined the board in 2009 and served two terms as board chair. She was a partner for 27 years at Deloitte & Touche in Chicago prior to retirement.
