I have worked with start-ups in various industries and capacities, most recently having closed a publishing company that I founded in 2005. I have been working with mak-‘amham/Café Ohlone since 2018; working with Vincent and Louis has clarified my vision of what healthy, sustainable businesses look like. I am a collaborative collaborator, but also quite ambitious. Throughout my professional life, I have placed a high value on a sense of balance and passion for one’s life work, and I have striven to impart this value, along with a sense of community, to my 3 (now grown) daughters. I live in the SF East Bay.
