 helor of Arts degree in Humanities and Communications.  She also holds a 
 Master of Legal Studies degree from the Santa Barbara and Ventura Colleges
  of Law.   Clarissa has been with the Housing Authority for over 13 year
 s\, and immediately found her passion and purpose in the Housing Authority
 ’s Mission and Vision of providing affordable housing while demonstratin
 g compassion and respect for the people and community they serve.  She is
  inspired everyday by her colleagues at the Housing Authority and the resi
 dents and clients whose lives have changed from having a place to call hom
 e.  When not at the Housing Authority\, Clarissa can be found spending ti
 me with her husband Brian and her newly rescued French Bulldog\, “Penny
