JESSICA LUND ATLARGE7@PICONC.COM
Jessica moved to the PICO Neighborhood Council district in 2010 and has lived here ever since. She grew up in Michigan and received a B.A. in Political Science (with a double major in Comparative Literature) from the University of Michigan. She received a J.D. from N.Y.U. Law, where she studied law and policy. She moved to Los Angeles from New York city in 2007 to work as an entertainment lawyer at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher. Currently, she works at The CW Television Network. In her spare time, Jessica writes her own (so far, unproduced) television scripts (most of which feature environmental and community issues dramatized in science fiction worlds). Every day, you can find her walking around the neighborhood with her dogs and other neighbors. She also enjoys the outdoor activities L.A. offers in abundance: swimming, cycling, hiking Runyan and the Angeles National Forest. She joined the PICO NC in 2022 and was instrumental in establishing PICO NC’s first committee dedicated to sustainability, transportation, and mobility issues. She is now the Co-Chair of the Sustainability, Transportation, & Mobility Standing Committee. She is passionate about building a vibrant, welcoming community where neighbors interact and support each other to live their best, healthiest, most sustainable lives.

She is a graduate of the Master of Public Policy program at UCLA Luskin where she focused on environmental policy and served on the board of Policy Professionals for Diversity and Equity (PPDE).

BRAD KANE | atlarge6@piconc.com
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, and graduated from both UCLA and Hastings College of the Law. Professionally, I am a lawyer. My practice focuses on helping people, especially in the areas of employment law and landlord tenant disputes.
In 1999, I moved to South Carthay. In 2007, I was elected President of the South Carthay Neighborhood Association and continue in that role. I joined the PICO Neighborhood Council to help protect and preserve our beautiful neighborhood, and was elected President of the PICO NC in 2015. I love learning about our wonderful neighborhood and strive to empower our board members and stakeholders in their efforts to preserve and improve it.
