Director Area 1: General Vanier
(Oct. 2021-Oct. 2025)

Originally from Luxembourg, Gabriel moved to Ottawa in 2014 and to the Riverside Park neighbourhood in 2017 with his wife and grumpy cat. With the pandemic, an energetic lab and a new baby at home, Gabriel had the opportunity to spend more time exploring the neighbourhood and meeting neighbours. That’s also how he first heard of the Community Association and grew interested in getting involved to make sure this remains one of the best neighbourhoods to live in Ottawa.

Tony Tran, VP Communications

Director Area 1: General Vanier

Oct 2022 – Oct 2025

My wife and I have been a part of the Riverside Park community for just over a year. I have been working in the communications and marketing field here in Ottawa for the past three years.
Since we’ve moved to the community, we’ve been welcomed by so many fantastic people, and it has been a pleasure getting to know everyone. I would like to join the RPCA and help our community wherever I can. You can usually catch me walking around the General Vanier area with my wife Carlene and our dog Ellie.

Rob Vanden Hoven, Director

Director Area 2: Mooney’s Bay

Oct 2022 – Oct 2025

rinks@riversidepark.ca

My family has been a part of the Riverside Park community for more than 15 years and we love to enjoy outdoor activities in the area.
I became a RPCA Director last year as I have an interest in ensuring the community outdoor rinks continue to thrive. Over the past year, I supported the rink operators and volunteers who kept the rinks running. I would like to continue to provide my support as a Director in the coming year.

You can usually catch me walking around or playing in the parks in the Mooney’s Bay area.

Director Area 5: Revelstoke

Oct 2021 – Oct 2025

As a young, Ottawa-Toronto-Montreal professional couple, we moved our family into the Mooney’s Bay neighborhood some 40 years ago. Raising our family of 6 within the Riverside Park Community was ideal, to now, challenging again, to be extended into USA communities, in order to find meaningful careers.
