Brittney Bush Bollay
Vice-Chair
Position No. 1 – Elected
Term: June 2024 to June 2027
Brittney’s love for the environment was born during childhood camping trips with her Girl Scout troop in Middle Tennessee and nurtured through years of hiking, backpack, and scuba diving. A delightfully adventurous life took her across four states and five countries before she found a forever home in King County fifteen years ago.
In addition to her service on the Board of Supervisors, Brittney is a longtime volunteer with Sierra Club and has previously served on the board of The Vera Project and the Queen Anne Community Council. She believes strongly that environmental work should be led by those most impacted and is passionate about connecting frontline communities with the resources they need to effect positive change. In her spare time, she’s usually thinking about baseball.

Csenka Favorini-Csorba
Supervisor
Position #3 – Elected
Term: 5/18/2023 to 5/18/2029
Csenka has been embedded in the world of conservation for over a decade, but has been a blossoming environmentalist since she was a child saving worms from the sidewalk and doing experiments in the mud.
She embraces the mantra to “think global, act local” and backs it with experience in forest management and sustainable agriculture in Southeast Asia, South America, Canada, and the United States Southeast. Since 2021, she’s been working at the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, applying her broad knowledge to the state she calls home.
As a Board Supervisor, she is committed to ensuring that historically and systemically excluded communities have greater access to KCD’s programs and assistance, finding pathways for those communities to become landowners and land managers, increasing consultation and engagement with Tribes, reforming our election process, and bringing carbon sequestration and storage into focus as part of KCD’s work.
