PERSONAL BIO: 
I was born in Coronado, CA, and lived around the country due to my father’s military career. We returned to Coronado upon my father’s retirement in 1979, and with the exception of eight years in San Francisco, have lived in the San Diego area ever since.  In addition to working fulltime in the financial industry, I served nine years in the Army Reserves and was honorably discharged at the rank of Staff Sergeant in 2018. 

I have two children, and enjoy traveling to Europe (eight times…and counting!), hiking, all things historical, listening to live music, and riding my vintage motorcycle and vintage Vespa scooter with friends.
