Hilda Morovati

Director

“I’m looking forward to being a part of a local organization that promotes businesses in our own neighborhood by supporting each other grow and prosper. I’ve been a member of MVCC for more than 13 years and always appreciated the individuals on the board who made the mixers such a fun and rewarding event. Now it’s my turn to give back to my community and help the newer businesses experience the same warmth and welcome as I did.”

Sara Shahmoradian

Director

“I’m excited to be joining the Montrose-Verdugo Chamber as a way of giving back to the community that has done so much for me. I look forward to connecting with members of the community and ensuring that Montrose continues to thrive!”

Trevor Marca

Director

“I’ve always been passionate about helping small businesses thrive, but as we come out of COVID-19, I believe coming together as a community to help our locally-owned businesses is more important than ever. I look forward to synergistically connecting businesses to each other, forming strategic community partnerships that are mutually beneficial, and referring business to locally-owned companies whenever possible. Through these efforts, we can ensure that our local businesses thrive in this new socio-economic landscape.”
