                           HON. ERIC SWALWELL

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, December 12, 2022

  Mr. SWALWELL. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize outgoing Dublin 
Unified School District Trustee Megan Rouse as her term ends on 
Tuesday, December 13, 2022, after nine years of serving Dublin's 
students.
  Megan graduated from Smith College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 
Physics and Mathematics in 1993. After moving to Dublin in 1997, she 
returned to school and earned a Master of Business Administration with 
an emphasis in Finance from the University of California Berkeley's 
Haas School of Business in 2001.
  Megan began her career in corporate investment banking in New York 
and San Francisco. She remains a Certified Financial Planner 
practitioner and owner of her own financial planning business, helping 
individuals and families reach their financial goals. She also served 
on the board of the Financial Planning Association of the East Bay for 
11 years.
  After she was appointed as a Dublin Unified School District trustee 
in 2013, Megan was elected to her first full term in 2014 with a 
successful bid for re-election in 2018. As a school board member, she 
serves on the wellness committee, budget committee, and grading 
committee, while also participating in programming for the Tri-Valley 
Special Education Local Plan Area and Tri-Valley Regional Occupational 
Program.
  Through all of this, Megan has remained an active member of the 
Dublin community. Since 2014 she has been an active member of the 
Rotary Club of Dublin, holding various leadership positions. She also 
serves as a deacon and finance elder at John Knox Church, served on the 
board of Joy Preschool and Daycare for five years, and was the 
committee chair of Cub Scouts Pack 930.
  I thank Megan for lending her diligence and leadership to the Dublin 
Unified School District Board for nearly a decade. I join the Tri-
Valley community in celebrating her numerous accomplishments and wish 
her and her loving husband, Gordon, and two children, Maribel and Gabe, 
all the best as they decide what challenges to take on next.
