What city did you grow up and how’d you end up in Long Beach?
I was born and raised in Southern California. I grew up in Cerritos where my parents still live. We love the Long Beach area because of its diversity and it gives us all the opportunities and accessibility of living in a big city while still having a small-town vibe.
I started working from home about 3 years ago, and didn’t realize how much I would miss the day-to-day chatter of an office. I missed having in-person conversations with people, just stimulating my mind outside of work. Being in the JLLB has given me access to amazing women who can serve as my role models, mentors, and most importantly, friends.
One of the things I value about JLLB is that there are women from a variety of backgrounds, ages and experiences. This has allowed me to meet women and make friendships with people I may not have met otherwise.
I consider myself the world’s best UNO player.
