Governance

The Board of Directors is the governing body for the Rancho Bernardo Swim & Tennis Club, Inc.

Board meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm in Club 21. All interested members are invited to attend. There is an opportunity for members to speak at the beginning of the meeting. The Board can be contacted by e-mail through the Contact menu tab.

The Board is made up of volunteers from our community who are elected annually by a secret mail-in ballot by the Association members as defined in the Governing Documents. Any property owner in good standing within the Club community is eligible to run for the Board. Board members have a fiduciary responsibility to act in good faith on behalf of the community. They make decisions for the community regarding Association management, committee appointments, contracts, insurance, financial management, legal issues, enforcement, discipline, personnel, and other duties outlined in the laws and governing documents.

All members of the Board sign a Code of Conduct that outlines Board Member responsibilities including: guidelines for professional conduct; protection of confidential information; standards of professional behavior and roles regarding employees. The Code provides a mechanism for imposing disciplinary action when those obligations are not met.

Elections are held annually in March of each year. If a vacancy on the Board should occur due to death or resignation, the remaining Board members have the authority to appoint an eligible replacement director from the community to fulfill the remaining term of the vacant position.

The Board of Directors

President - Oswin M. Schreiber

Our family moved into The Trails at Rancho Bernardo in 2001, and has enjoyed the RBSTC since then. I am a very proud husband, father of four daughters, and now grandfather of two grandchildren. My career began in Physics, where I had the opportunity to work on my Ph.D. at the European particle accelerator (CERN), held various positions in the international semiconductor industry, and started my own company (pocketBERT Inc.) in 2007, designing and manufacturing high-speed test equipment. I now enjoy swimming, biking, starting new projects, and most of all, sharing my passion for woodworking with younger generations. As Vice President of the RBSTC Woodcrafters Club, I have been able to lead several philanthropic projects, youth camps, and fulfill my drive to contribute to our community.

Vice President - Allen Moghadas

I have been a proud resident of Rancho Bernardo for several years, developing a deep appreciation for the community's unique character and vibrant spirit. As a power electronics engineer, I've been involved in both industry and academia, and I hold a PhD in electrical engineering along with a PE license.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and playing tennis, which helps me stay active and connected with others in the community.

Treasurer - Bruce Heinemann

Married forty-three years to my wife Susan. I have two grown children and two grandchildren who live who live in Nashville TN (daughter) and Chicago IL (son) . We are originally from Ohio, but have moved around the country, and originally came to Rancho Bernardo in 1996. We moved back to Rancho Bernardo two years ago. In April of 2025 I semi-retired and have taken advantage of this time investing in our family, serving on some non-profit boards, mentoring through SCORE, a volunteer consulting organization, and enjoying time with my wife. During my career, I was a finance professional for Unisys, and CFO for several privately held companies including Telesis, Tyden Brooks, and Horticulture Lighting Group. I enjoy swimming, pickleball, jogging, general exercise, and attending several bible study groups through North Coast Church in Escondido.

Patricia ‘Trish’ Lee. I am a CPA and have a BA and an MBA with an emphasis in accounting and finance. I am currently a division chief in the DoD with 37 years of experience in the auditing field. I’ve worked both internationally as well as in California. Through my management experience, I am a proven leader in managing a large department, problem solving, and employee development. I’ve lived in the San Diego area since 2006 and in Greens West since 2014. My husband and I enjoy the RB Swim and Tennis Club’s gym and swimming pools. I’ve been active in the Rancho Bernardo community service for several years.

Fun fact: I’ve been to all 7 continents and nearly 50 countries.

Board Director - John Benson

My wife, Kim, and I relocated from upstate NY to Rancho Bernardo just over 4 years ago. Our goals were to be closer to our 3 grown children, who had previously relocated to California, and to escape the cold and snowy winters of Rochester, NY. When we arrived in Rancho Bernardo, we did not know anyone except a few friendly neighbors who made us feel welcome from day one. While we were aware of the Swim and Tennis Club, we did not anticipate what a significant role it would play in our lives. I am at the club most days of the week, playing pickleball and enjoying the 21 Club pool area. My goal as a board member is to ensure that the current level of maintenance and improvements would be maintained and to do my best to see that other members have the same great experience that we have enjoyed at the club.

Board Director - Tonja Anderson

Tonja has called Rancho Bernardo home since May 2000, where she and her husband, Kipp, have raised two sons, one currently pursuing a PhD and the other in his sophomore year of college. With an impressive 31-year career as an elementary school teacher, Tonja has dedicated herself to shaping young minds and fostering a love for learning. For the past 16 years, she has played an active role on various education and performing arts boards within PUSD schools, furthering her commitment to the community and the arts. Over the past 25 years, Tonja and her family have also enjoyed the many wonderful benefits of being members of The Rancho Bernardo Swim & Tennis Club, making the most out of their local community.

Board Director - Steve Palm

Our family moved to Rancho Bernardo into Montelena in 1995 from Hawaii. I have a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in accounting. We have two sons; one lives in San Diego and the other lives in North Carolina. I retired in November 2022. My career included working at Ernst & Young for 2 years as a CPA and working for Motorola Solutions, Inc. for forty years. In my career at Motorola, I worked in roles as a Corporate Internal Auditor, Financial and Distribution Controller, Business Operations Manager, and Project Manager. I like golf, swimming, hiking, and pickleball. Since I retired, I typically visit the Club 5 or 6 times a week. I strive to keep the Club’s amenities accessible and well-maintained so that every time members visit, they have a pleasant and satisfying experience. I also support the club’s accounting and financial functions.

Board Director - Rene Carmichael

I am a two-time member of RBSTC - my family moved to Gatewood Hills when I was in elementary school, and my husband and I moved to the Greens area when we started our family. I feel incredibly lucky to live here, be a part of this wonderful community, and have the privilege of having a club that provides first-class amenities and recreational access. My professional background is in public relations, and I have worked for the City of Poway as their Community Outreach Coordinator for the past 9 years. When I'm not working or hanging out with my family, you will likely find me playing tennis. My husband and I are the proud parents of three young women who are now in college, but during their school years, I was very involved at almost every stage of their education. I was a room parent, foundation and PTA member, Girl Scout Leader, and more!

Board Director - David Mayers

I arrived in August of 1983 and, blink, 43 years later, I am still living in Rancho Bernardo. I met my wife at Purdue; we were both born and raised in Indiana. We were married in 1985 and purchased our first home in High Country West in 1986. I played racquetball five days a week at the High Country West Club during the 10 years we lived there. Our son and daughter were born, then we moved to Westwood for the next 13 years. In 2008 we moved to Montalena. When I retired in 2024, I started by working out at RBSTC each morning. I am now enjoying the club 7 days a week. My other passion is restoring classic cars. I have restored six cars over the years, from rebuilding engines to body work. For the better part of my career, I was the Director of Operations/Engineering for several companies, also in charge of facilities.
