Why San Francisco is important to me:  As a youth, I made the trek from my hometown in Humboldt County to visit my family in Santa Cruz several times a year.  The only part that made those long trips crammed into the backseat of a silver Camry bearable was the promise that we would stop in San Francisco for a few short hours.  Even then, I knew that the City was the place that I wanted to make my home.  22 years later, I am proud to say that I landed my dream job serving the city that I love and that I can finally call myself a real San Francisco resident!

Something unique about me:  As much as I love San Francisco and consider it home, I will always bleed green and gold.  Go A’s!  (Although the Giants are pretty awesome too)
