Vicki Warren - President
Noelle Haile - Vice President
| I joined the GB family as a part of the team that got together to develop the mission and vision for the organization.
I am now a member of the Board of Directors who is responsible for rallying and cheering for the team.
I am a part of the Disney Cast member Alumni (Not a character) and a novice (yet very competitive) Volley Ball player! Recently, I completed all requirements to become a Life Coach as well. I love to eat, sleep, travel and everything related to music :)

Richard Turner - Treasurer
I have been involved with Youth Media for many years and directly involved in community media as the Executive Director of Montgomery Community Television. I met Richard Jaeggi at a CTC-Net conference and we have been conspiring ever since.
I am on the Board of Directors and serve as the Treasurer. I have also volunteered as a mentor and trainer.
When I was in high school I was influenced by filmmaker George Stoney. He was involved in organizing youth to produce video as a conflict mediation tool to ease racial tension in the '70s which became the basis of a documentary Race and Reason.
Renetta Boyd - Secretary:
I was invited to attend a GB open house. At the open house and after hearing about the great work of the youth, I completed a post card that asked how would I like to become involved. I checked the box for becoming a board member and was invited to an interview. I have been a board member since 2009. I serve as the recording Secretary for the GB board. I have a lifelong commitment to volunteerism and community service. I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer, Eastern Caribbean, St. Kitts- 2004-2006, and I am serving as the Social Committee Chair for RPCV/W 50th Anniversary. Additionally, I am a active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Theta Omega Omega Chapter, Silver Spring, MD. I serve on the AKA Connection committee and the Partnership in Math and Science program where I tutor 4th graders in reading on Thursday at William Taylor Page Elementary School in Silver Spring.
