Farrell eventually moved back to Southern California, where she transitioned into a communication role at public relations firm Golin and later Allison & Partners. In 2012, Farrell began producing a series about the history of Torrance to commemorate the city’s centennial. Shen then joined the marketing and communications team at Torrance Memorial Medical Center in 2011, where she helped to open the Lundquist Tower.

She is excited to help shine a light on the SBCCOG’s many programs and initiatives that “make a difference in the South Bay region.”

In her spare time, Farrell enjoys yoga, hiking, skiing, traveling and cooking.

Welcome Colleen Farrell and thank you for your commitment and the difference you are already making to advance the programs of the SBCCOG.
