Board of Directors

Born in Alaska, moved here young, traveled the seas as a tall ship sailor for a few years, drove a school bus, and finally settled down as a teacher back here where I started. It was around that time that I attended my first Thorns game, a 2016 0-0 draw against Seattle. By the time I left the stadium, I'd added the remainder of the season to my calendar and put in a call about season tickets. The Riveters and rainbow flags were a big part of that decision. You'll still find me wandering the north end on Thorns game days, in awe of the legends and professionals we have the privilege to support here in Portland.

107IST-wise, I fell into a role with Community Outreach and the Riveters Steering Committee near the end of 2019. Match day drives are my jam and I'm always hoping to make them bigger and better. I'm a huge fan of the community organizations and activists I've gotten to meet while serving in this role. Love the 107IST community, love the community that surrounds us, and thrilled to be representing RSC on the board this year.

Jennifer Ingraham

Email: jennifer.ingraham@107ist.org
Board member since: Jan 2019
Current Term: Jan 2021–Dec 2023
Responsibilities: Board Secretary; Member, Communications Committee

Born and raised in Alaska, Jennifer had zero exposure to soccer until her boys started playing, and she quickly fell in love with the beautiful game. She and her family watched their first Timbers match at the same time as the rest of MLS: the 2011 season opener. They've been in the North End since, usually residing somewhere in 207. 

Jen's been involved with the 107ist since 2014, helping with communications and the occasional tifo or other volunteer effort. In 2015, she took on responsibility for the weekly newsletter, and has shipped it out every week since. Jen has been on nonprofit boards for 15 years, and she's excited to use her experience to serve the 107ist. 

In her professional life, Jennifer is a writer for a massive transportation company, and she is also the manager of a small pool of copy editors for an e-learning development agency.

Lindy Lacson

Board member since: Jan 2021
Current Term: Jan 2022-2024
Responsibilities: Member, BIPOC Advisory Board

Born in the Philippines and raised in the Central Valley of California. Moved to Portland in 2012 for work. Professionally I’m in Marketplace Operations and Supply Chain.

Lifelong lover of the Beautiful game. Played AYSO, dreamed of being a ‘99er. The whole shebang.

When I moved up to PDX in 2012, I knew 3 people. 2 of those people scarfed me with a No Pity Scarf even before I officially moved and the deal was done. They took me to my first Timbers match and I fell in love with the TA DnT. It was because I became a regular fixture there that I was invited to join the Riveters CDnT in 2014. I’d become a season ticket holder for the Thorns as soon as they were available in 2013, but hadn’t really found my place yet while attempting to volunteer for the Riveters. Now you can find me in 107 for the Riveters and 106 for the Timbers, or throwing out random ideas for the Riveters Merch team. Beyond that, I’m also a member of the BIPOC committee and am honored to represent them on the Board.

Stephan Lewis

Email: stephan.lewis@107ist.org
Board member since: Jan 2017
Current Term: Jan 2021–Dec 2023
Responsibilities: Chair, Community Outreach Committee

Portland born and mostly raised, soccer was a big part of my upbringing and I started really combining my love of the two when the Timbers started back up in 2001. With a background in architecture, I started studying and practicing community development over 25 years ago to have a greater, more positive impact in our changing landscapes. Central to this practice are the principles of empowerment, participation, inclusion, self-determination, and partnership. 

Very active in my communities, I volunteer my time with the 107IST as a member of the Outreach Committee, representing our interests in the local community from neighborhoods and coalitions to other nonprofits and community organizations, providing day to day operational logistics for all aspects of the org, and am an active member of the tifo crew.

Board member since: Feb 2023
Current Term: Feb 2024 (Timbers Army Steering Committee Representative)
Responsibilities: Member, Gameday Operations, Timbers Army Steering Committee

Born and raised just outside of Portland, I have been following the Timbers since 2001 (I guess the home opener against Seattle made an impression). Since then, I have migrated through many of the sections within the TA, finding my home with the Charlies in 104.

On match days, you can usually find me in the 104/105 capo nest.

107ist delegate from the West Side stands; alternatively, the 107IST delegate from Clackamas County.

Season ticket holder in the west side stands for ten+ years, happy to find and bond with the 116 ultras. She was a bona fide soccer mom long before that.

Sheba is a lifelong bilingual educator, and currently the principal at Heritage Elementary School in Woodburn. Prior to her appointment to the 107IST Board, she served on the boards of other non-profits.

Joseph has lived in Portland since 2000. He started attending Timbers matches fulltime in 2007, joined the flag crew in late 2007, became a season ticket holder in 2008, and an honorary member of the AOP during the 2008 season.

Gabby Rosas

Email: gabby.rosas@107ist.org
Board member since: Jan 2018
Current Term: Jan 2021–Dec 2023
Responsibilities: Board President; Chair, Communications Committee, Riveters Steering Committee, Chair, Co-Liaison, and ISC voting member, Rose City Riveters

A lifelong soccer fan, Gabby moved to Portland in 2007 and found her way to Timbers, University of Portland, and US Soccer matches as often as possible. When Thorns FC was announced in 2012, there was no turning back. 

Gab has been volunteering with both the Timbers Army and Rose City Riveters for years, and has had a hand in the Riveters' travel and merch planning.

On Timbers matchdays, she's nested in 208. For Thorns, she moves down into the sun to get some more freckles in 108.

Corinne Waller

Email: corinne.waller@107ist.org
Board member since: Feb 2023
Current Term: Feb 2024 (BIPOC Advisory Board Representative)
Responsibilities: Member, BIPOC Advisory Board

Corinne had been a STH with the 2 previous women's professional soccer leagues in the Bay Area of California. With no team in California for the upcoming NWSL, she became a STH with the Portland Thorns. Corinne is a passionate supporter of women's sports, so it wasn't crazy, to her, to plan on traveling to another state to support a team.

She learned about the Riveters and the 107IST that inaugural match. Shortly thereafter, she became a member. She attended almost every home match that 1st season and attended most home matches before the pandemic and then the protests of the FO. Corinne's a retired firefighter with 30 years of service. She spends so much time in Portland & the surrounding areas, it feels like a second home. Corinne appreciates the work of the 107IST in the various community service projects over the years. She's on the BIPOC committee and serving her first year on the Board.
