In Carey’s words, “I’m proud to be a Davis Duck!”
Maria Stout, Vice President
Mom to Hayden (6th grade) and Luca (1st grade), Maria struggles to pick her favorite Davis community activity, but looks forward to Movie Nights and Skate Nights, and the Gala, of course!

Bryan Chin, Treasurer
Bryan’s daughter Penny is a Davis alum and Daphne is in 4th grade, and his favorite Davis community activity of all time was the haunted house that used to occur with Trunk or Treat, although he also enjoys the annual musical. When he’s not refereeing youth soccer, Bryan oversees the finances for the Davis Foundation, including behind the scenes of BBFD and the Gala.
