I grew up in Santa Monica and in 1982 moved to San Luis Obispo County. From 2004 to 2011 I worked as the Program Administrator for the Senior Nutrition Program of San Luis Obispo County, a local non-profit organization that is near and dear to my heart. Prior to that I worked in the private sector and have over sixteen years of experience in Management, Human Resources and Employee Training and Development. I am a dedicated volunteer in my community, and have served since 2003 as a Board of Director for the Jacqualyn Palchak Cancer Fund, and have held leadership positions with Camp Fire USA, several Lucia Mar schools and my church. My husband and I have two kids in college, and in my spare time I enjoy doing home improvement projects and creating special occasion cakes and candies.

I joined the staff of SLOCEA in September 2011 and am so please to be your Field Representative. I look forward to meeting and getting to know our SLOCEA members, and am committed to serving its membership.
