My name is Newt Parkes and I have been a resident of Temecula since 2013 and come to the Board of TEAM RCD as a former executive in the Global IT Software and Services industry. With a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and an MBA in Finance I bring a science perspective to TEAM RCD’s operations and the requisite background and understanding of finance and accounting to perform effectively as Secretary Treasurer. Additionally, I am a strong proponent of environmental protection, particularly as it relates to watershed areas, whether in Riverside County or globally. My particular focus on the TEAM RCD Board is the issue of homelessness, and coordinating with the city and town homeless coordinators where homeless issues impact the various watershed project sites in which the RCD is involved.
