Tricia Barnes has been the Executive Director of the East Village Business Improvement Association since 2001.

Tricia is very involved in community as she sits on several Boards including LOCO BC, BIABC, and others.

Most mornings you can catch her filling up her mug at The Laughing Bean Coffee Co. And some days you can find her enjoying an avocado benny from Roundel Cafe.
