Sharene Rekow

Sharene, whose name means sweet in Pharisee, is truly that kind of person. She learned of the name significance while attending the Thunderbird School of Global Management which hosted many students from the Middle East. As a businesswoman and single mother of her daughter, she has had to subjugate many of her desires and talents to be a model until later in life.

She was a nonprofit executive for the Better Business Bureau and the Rotary Club of Downtown Portland as well as a business development and marketing person for for-for profit companies.

In Sharene’s down time she likes to kayak, hike and has walked Portland to Coast with an over 50’s team called Damn Aged Feat. She has been a volunteer for Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) and Jr. Achievement. She has been Sr. Warden of St. Stephen’s Episcopal church on 23 and Clay. She hopes to get a graffiti museum started in the City of Portland and is working with Go Go Art Gallery to do so.
