Q & A

  • What does “living your best Bay Area Life” mean to you?

    Living life to the fullest! Enjoying all that the Bay Area has to offer with the amazing weather and outdoor activities, the culture and art and of course the incredible restaurants.
  • What are your favorite pursuits outside of work?

    I enjoy creative arts: painting and crafts…even though I am not that good at it. I am an avid reader and love to bake. I traveled to many different countries with my family when my Dad was in the Air Force and I still love to expand my perspective and have adventures while visiting new places.
  • What are some of the challenges you face living in the Bay Area?

    Traffic!!! It’s crazy how much it has changed and it doesn’t matter what time of day or day of the week it is.
