Jeff Harris
President ARCMA
After spending my early life in Texas, I moved to California in early 1990. After most of it spent in Roseville, I moved to Folsom and the American River Canyon in 2010 where I live with my wife Kathy. My two daughters are grown and living on their own. One in Texas and the other in Australia.
After graduating from The University of Texas at Austin, I worked a few different jobs in Texas. One was in the oil and steel business, and another as an on-air personality for a radio and television station in a small market. It was fun, the pay was not!
Due mainly to the weather, I followed my parents to California where I began working for Enterprise soon after. At Enterprise I learned the value of sales and customer service, and became even more fiscally conservative than I was. After a 30-year career at Enterprise, I left, and I am now a realtor with Keller Williams.
My goal as a board member is to reach out and encourage participation. I want to make sure past board members are involved. As a manager for many years, I valued information and input. Even though I am fiscally conservative, there is an obligation to make our Canyon look as good and enticing as possible. I want to make smart decisions on how we allocate funds. But I also want to make it where every homeowner who drives up and down the Canyon can feel proud where they live. I call it a pride of ownership.
Rebekah Bornemisza
Vice President/Treasurer ARCMA
I studied business administration in college. During the latter part of my career as a senior administrative assistant in KPMG’s advisory practice and an executive assistant within Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company’s legal department, I was routinely exposed to process improvement work and legal case preparation at the executive level. I’ve also sat on committees and was routinely included in special projects related to creating or strengthening best practices. These companies reinforced within me its culture of a strong work ethic and above all, doing the right thing.
Patrick O'Donnell
Board Member at Large
As a homeowner I have lived in the canyon for almost 30 years and previously served on the
Board from 2012-2020. As a former Board President, I am passionate about our parkway and financial stability.
In brief, I have a background in electrical engineering, construction and accounting. I have
been the CFO and controller of numerous companies; from taking companies through
bankruptcy returning them to solvency and fiscal viability. For 13 years I worked at El Dorado
County as their Senior Department Analyst, overseeing over 1 billion taxpayer dollars. I tracked
project cost and funding for 20 years in the future. Fiscal transparency is my middle name! I was part of the 2019 Board which negotiated an agreement with the Canyon Terrace Apartments to pay their share of beautifying/ maintaining the parkway, valued over $40k in 2025. I continue to volunteer for ARCMA on the tree, landscape or finance committees.
As a seasoned and former Board member, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. I walk the parkway most days, feel free to stop me to chat. Being a contributing member of our neighborhood is important to me. I am honored to be
representing you, my neighbors, on the ARCMA Board of Directors.
