Liz Gillies is a West Coast transplant with an East Coast sense of humor. She moved here in 2011 with her husband and children to pursue a lifelong dream of living in California. After a career in restaurant management, Liz decided to transition to working in a school environment. This change allowed for additional work flexibility to be more present daily for her three children. Liz came to IVA as Nutrition Services Coordinator. after working as a Rec Aide in LBUSD for years. Her passion for creating warmth, caring for, and feeding people is nurtured by inviting all students to nourish their bodies and minds. She believes there is a direct correlation between hunger and learning and works to encourage all students to come into the Meal Room to take a meal or snack at break times.

“As an IVA parent, I’ve seen firsthand the devotion, community and care IVA provides to all students. I was thrilled to have an opportunity to become a member of the team and work alongside the wonderful educators and staff to create an environment of love and support in all forms for students at IVA.”
