Board President - Vaibhav Bora - Term ending in 2025"I have been in this community for 5 years and love it here! I work at Microsoft and have a PhD from UofA. After last year’s snowstorms, I collaborated with residents & RRHOA for snow removal and reached out to Sarah Perry to escalate our concerns to King County. After evaluating options, we requested higher priority for some RRE streets, awaiting King County’s decision. If elected, I intend to work to bring back more community events and increase community engagement and transparency in our HOA".

Vice-President - Richard Hagemeyer - Term ending in 2026Many of you know me through my passion for fireworks, and I've enjoyed being able to light up the sky every July 4th as part of Family Fun Day. I've been a resident of Redmond Ridge East for 11 years. From the very beginning I was attending the HOA board meetings, long before I was ever a member. It started as a way to be informed, but grew to be much more as I became the first homeowner on the board (once enough homes were built).

We are a scout family, enthusiastic about serving the community. I have volunteered in our son's schools, fund raisers, cultural orgs, fighting against propositions impacting our community (marijuana/adult entertainment).
