“I am very excited to be taking on a new role in this forward-thinking grass-roots organization,” says Brown. “I am honored to serve the organization during this important time – for both the organization and Lee Highway community – as we go through the planning process with Arlington County.”

As Executive Director, Brown says she intends to make Plan Lee Highway a priority, working with the LHA Board to ensure the community’s vision – as laid out in the 2016 Visioning Study – is front and center throughout the process. She also intends to focus on place-making efforts and supporting Lee Highway’s small business community.
