My Location

I am located in the heart of California's Silicon Valley, a quick drive from both San Francisco and Oakland. I have traveled extensively throughout the US, Canada and England. I have over 90,000 frequent flyer miles and enjoy traveling for business or pleasure.

My Education

I saw college as more than just vocational training--it was a chance to expand my knowledge and develop the person that I would become.

In addition to foundation classes required for my major, I also took classes in advertising, art, Russian, jazz history, travel literature, film history, American Sign Language, human anatomy, social dance, and jewelry making. In addition I was involved in student government and worked for the school raising money for an academic foundation. After college I continued my education by taking advantage of employer-paid classes in computers and marketing communication. I became a Notary Public for the state of California in 2004.
