Meet Our Board: Alexis Petru

New Year, new Board member!

Alexis Petru is our newest Board member, joining the San Bruno Education Foundation Board in December 2019. She spent much of last year as a volunteer for SBEF, doing grant writing, social media and other outreach.

Alexis moved to San Bruno in 2007 and was immediately impressed by the “City with a Heart’s” sense of community. She became even more invested in the local community when she started a family and joined the San Bruno Parents Club in 2012 and when her oldest child entered the San Bruno Park School District in 2017.

She is a firm supporter of public education and believes deeply in the San Bruno Education Foundation’s mission of providing quality academic enrichment programs to all San Bruno students.

Alexis has worked as a communications consultant, environmental journalist and environmental programs coordinator, and she brings her experience with communications and community-organizing to further the SBEF’s mission.

Alexis has a son in first grade at John Muir Elementary and a preschool-aged daughter.
