As a native of the Bay Area and a San Francisco resident for over 40 years, it brings me great joy to work at the infant center here in Cow Hollow.

I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Sports Management from the University of San Francisco and spent the earlier part of my career working in the hospitality field. I owned a restaurant for 20 years, where I not only mastered the perfect pizza toss, but also the art of multitasking. My restaurant work ethic and love of working closely with people has driven me to my work with Tiny Giants, Too! After furthering my administration and early childhood education at CCFS, I now work to ensure the children and families experience exceptional care and days filled with warmth and kindness.

I married my high school sweetheart 25 years ago and together we have five boys—all grown now. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and wide group of friends and we especially enjoy spending time at our house in Lake County or watching various Bay Area sports events. We recently adopted a new puppy and have been busy taking him on many walks around the neighborhood.
