Smart Voter Full Biography for Karen Smith

Candidate for
Supervisor; County of El Dorado; District 4

This information is provided by the candidate

My career led me to the Aerospace Industry where I spent 28 years as an Administrator. I had a five year period in the commercial sector as an Employee Relations and Benefits Manager, but my first love was aerospace and I am proud that many projects I was involved with have given our military the tools to provide for the defense of our country. During my aerospace tenure I was hands on during contract negotiations and budget tracking. I worked on many major contracts, interfacing with government, both foreign and domestic. Every contract I was responsible for came in on time and under budget.

From 1976 through 1986 I owned and operated a successful aircraft rental business.

I attribute most of that success in my ability to interface with labor, management and clients, keeping them on track and within budget, focused on a common goal. I will work hard to do the same for our tax dollars. I will not spend your money frivolously.
