Overview
About Me
started a career in culinary arts, then joined the tech space and made a career in HR. I work as an HR Director at a startup in the self-driving car/ automotive space.
I love cooking, riding/ working on my motorcycles, and meeting new people at social events/happy hours!
Recently bought a home in La Puente CA (greater Los Angeles) and did the remodeling myself. I also built a bar in my yard because I’ve also bartended over the years.
