SaVanha is the Assistant Manager at Core Goods, where she has worked for 3 years, and a cashier at Woods & River Coffee since their opening in 2023. With her dad being in the military, she refers to Oil City, Sharon, and Aliso Viejo, California as her hometowns.

She went to Cranberry Area High School and was heavily involved at the YMCA where she received the Volunteer of the Year award. Her future goals include learning and growing in ways that she can help the community. She wants to become a better leader and is taking steps towards that through being a member of Leadership Venango’s class of 2024.

Some of her hobbies include cooking and baking, and walking the bridges in Oil City. She really enjoys community events that offer life music like concerts in the Justus Park and Pipeline Alley. She also frequents the Barrow-Civic Theatre and the local parks and trails for hiking, fishing, and much more. “It’s such a beautiful area! I truly love it here,” said SaVanha.

“I love the community! Working at Woods & River and Core Goods I meet a lot of people. I enjoy getting to meet new people and learn about them.”
