Tim and Tracey moved to Willow Bend Circle in February 2023. Born and raised in Watertown, South Dakota Tim enlisted in the U.S. Air Force after high school and was stationed at Blytheville AFB in Blytheville AR. Left active duty to attend college at the University of Arkansas and joined the 188th Tactical Fighter Wing in Ft Smith Arkansas. Received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration, moved to Rhode Island and for the next 30+ years worked in software development and as a member of the 143rd Rhode Island Air National Guard.

Brian Wald

Board Vice President

I was born and raised in California and my wife Lauren was raised in Missouri. Together we lived on the west coast for about 15 years. In 2023 we moved here to be closer to her family, to raise our young children and to experience the quality of life Arkansas has to offer. 

Professionally, my experience is in corporate sales and marketing. I have worked with Fortune 500 companies, as well as start-ups in the technology field to monetize and grow their businesses.

When I’m not walking the neighborhood with our golden retriever named Chip, I enjoy playing golf, hiking and trading stock options. As a member of the POA Board, my aim is to provide relevant lines of communication, preserve property values, and ensure Willow Bend remains a special place for all residents for years to come.

Monica Wilson

Treasurer

My name is Monica Eaton-Wilson. My Family and I moved to Springdale Arkansas in December 2018 from Arlington Texas. Victor and I have two (2) daughters, Courtney and Megan. They have two (2) Shih Tzu’s, Bella and Piper.

I graduated from The University of Alabama Culverhouse College of Business with a B.S. degree in Health Care Management and a minor in Accounting. I have been the Treasurer for Willow Bend POA since June 2019. During my time on the board, under the leadership of Mike Russell, we made many improvements to our neighborhood:

• Repaired the columns around the perimeter of our neighborhood at a reasonable cost;

• Installed New camera’s;

• Continued the Neighborhood Halloween Trick or Treat tradition; and

•Beautification of our entrance with flowers each spring and Fall.

As a board, we have been good stewards of our POA monies and hope to continue being good stewards.  aI look forward to my last year of working with the new board and our community.
