Q & A

  • What are your favorite pursuits outside of work?

    I love anything in the mountains! My husband and I spend much of our free time hiking, backpacking, camping, rock climbing, skiing, and snowshoeing. I like to unwind (and rest my mind and muscles) while baking cookies, reading fiction, or enjoying a good craft beer and a board game with family and friends.
  • If you volunteer for a charity, which one(s) and why?

    My husband and I both volunteer at our local Humane Society. We love animals, have two adopted pets of our own, and want to help as many others as we can find loving families. I organize fundraisers and adoption events and help with newsletters, but I also spend a few hours a week walking the dogs or socializing with the cats. Once we even drove a rescue rooster to a family farm! In the past, I’ve also worked with Junior Achievement, volunteering in an Oakland classroom, and Open Arms of Minnesota, delivering meals to Minnesotans living with life-threatening illnesses.
  • Three words to describe the Bay Area.

    Evolving, exciting, limitless
