Candidate for
City Clerk; City of Glendale

A native of Southern California, I was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley in a loving a close knit family environment. After graduating from UCLA with honors, I worked with the J. Paul Getty Trust in Santa Monica, then the Peggy Guggenheim Museum in Venice, Italy, before entering the world of legal management.

My career in law firm management began fifteen years ago as operations manager of an environmental law practice with seven attorneys. Today, I am responsible for the finances of two regional law offices in Northern and Southern California where I manages a multi-million dollar annual budget and assist over 100 attorneys and administrative managers in both locations.

I am a hands-on manager who is familiar with every aspect of administrative management. I am an active member of the national and local chapters of the Association of Legal Administrators and have served as treasurer of my homeowners association for the past several years.

I am eager to bring my extensive private sector knowledge and experience to public office where I can apply my management and leadership skills to serving all of Glendale as City Clerk.

For excellence in city administration, vote Lorna Vartanian for City Clerk on April 5, 2005!
