BreAnna is a citizen planner with the Planning Commission in North Salt Lake City. Her interest in citizen planning began when she saw the various ways in which citizens and planners interface with a community, and that both are needed for communities to thrive. Empowering citizen planners to excel in their roles and effect change in their communities, through education, training, mentoring and collaboration motivates her to serve on the board of the Utah chapter of the American Planning Association.
