I settled in El Granada in 2000 after living on the peninsula for a year.  Throughout my career, I lived and worked in many places including Connecticut, Southern California, Ohio and Hawaii.  I was born and raised in Pennsylvania but the first time I traveled to California with my parents as a teen, I knew California would be my home someday!

I retired from my professional career in 2023 and I enjoy spending my time on the betterment of the community and working with older adults on digital literacy.  Listening to the community and ensuring that concerns are heard by the GCSD are of utmost importance as I strive for improving the community for all residents.

I am a health enthusiast and love participating in sports activities on the coast.  You may see me on the coastal trail, kayaking in the harbor or at one of my favorite local restaurants like Mezza Luna or The Ketch!
