| Info | As of 1-21-00, Sadra Masin was an Eagan Council Member.
I am the mother of three grown children, who all attended public schools and graduated from Burnsville High School. In the last few years, my life has taken on another dimension with the addition of two marvelous grandchildren. They are a constant reminder of why I care about the legacy we leave and the opportunities that will be available to their new generation.
I received my Bachelor of Arts degree, with a major in Government and an Economics minor, from Valparaiso University in Indiana. Since the age of 16, I have worked – in retail sales, office administration, real estate and, during the past 10 years, as an independent financial services representative.
History of Public Service
As time went on, my work expanded to the broader needs of our community and our region:
* From 1988 to 1996, I was the moderator on Legislative Update, a program on Burnsville/Eagan Cable Access TV. In addition to regular discussions with our State Senate and House representatives, I enjoyed interviewing Senator Paul Wellstone and Congressman Bill Luther.
* From 1991 to 1995, I was the Volunteer Coordinator for the Minnesota Department of Corrections at the women's facility in Shakopee, when the focus was on reducing recidivism by preparing inmates for re-entry into society as productive citizens after their sentences were served.
* I experienced the workings of the Minnesota House of Representatives close-up as a staff member during two sessions in 1990 and 1991.
* During the mid-80s, while working for the Minnesota Historical Society, I particularly enjoyed acting as a tour guide of the Minnesota State Capitol – interpreting the art, architecture and history of the building, as well as Minnesota's governing process.
* Between 1993 and 2000, I served two terms as a member of the Eagan City Council, where I built a reputation for honest decision-making based on facts, full disclosure, and open debate.
* During my tenure as a city council member, I had the opportunity to serve as chair of the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority and to help organize (and chair) the Suburban Transit Association (a collaboration of several suburban transit systems) which worked to bring our collective transportation concerns to the Metropolitan Council and the State of Minnesota.
