I was born in Walnut Creek, California and lived there until 4th grade. Growing up in the 80’s in San Francisco, I am of course a huge Forty Niners fan, and watching the games has always been a family tradition, and continues to be so, with the birth of my nephew a year and a half ago. When I was in fourth grade, my family moved to Seattle, where my parents were both originally from. I graduated from Eastlake High School, which is east of Seattle. In High School I spent most of my weekends playing volleyball, and competed with my club volleyball team, all over the Pacific Northwest and in Las Vegas, and Sacramento.
I made the decision to move to San Diego, after graduating from College, as I was accepted to the University of San Diego, School of Law. Furthermore, my younger brother, whom I have always been very close to, was already a Freshman at San Diego State University and I was looking forward to being close to family again. While in law school, I was lucky enough to be able to study abroad in London, and visit Paris and Dublin while I was there. It is a goal of mine to return to spend more time in Europe.
