I have had an interest in technology since my freshman year at Foothill Technology High School, where I was introduced to digital media arts and communications. After high school, I found a love of cooking, the brewing process, and craft cocktails. I attended culinary school at SBCC and worked as a bartender in several Santa Barbara bars. I ended up in various roles at the Figueroa Mountain Brew Company for 9 years, ending as the General Manager. I decided to change directions and dive back into technology when CITIG offered me an opportunity to learn on the job and join the incredible team that truly cares about customer service and client relationships. When I’m not working, you will find me surfing, kayaking, hiking, and enjoying the social hours downtown with friends.
