BIOGRAPHY:

Wanda Love was first elected as a Council Member for the City of Gardena in July 2022.   Council Member Love has been a resident of Gardena for more than 30 years and has faithfully and diligently served the Gardena community for the past 20+ years.

She has been the President and CEO of the Gardena Valley Chamber of Commerce for the past 16 years where she has organized countless community events that have benefited the residents and businesses alike. She is a past vice president of the largest senior group in Gardena, The Second Time Around Club, and served as a Commissioner on the City of Gardena’s Business Economic Advisory Council. She also served as an Executive Board Member of the South Bay Association of Chambers of Commerce, member of the Los Angeles Business Federation, and was appointed to the LA County Democratic Party.

As a newly elected Council Member, she has taken on the role to represent the City of Gardena as the Alternate to the South Bay Cities Council of Governments and the Southern California Association of Governments.

Serving in the community is nothing new for Council Member Love. Her time at the Gardena Chamber has allowed her to create and develop great relationships within the community. These relationships are vitally important and beneficial in helping her move Gardena forward. She has owned four successful small businesses for more than 25 years, so being at the forefront of small business advocacy, fighting for sensible legislation from Sacramento, as well as our local government is what she loves to do. She does not just talk about Gardena; she is truly about the business of Gardena.
