I, came to the United States of America in 1979. I began my college education
at University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire and later received my bachelor’s in sci-
ence degree in Biological Science (Medical Technology) with a minor in chemis-
try from California State University Sacramento.

I am a licensed Clinical Laboratory Scientist. I have a master’s degree in health
services administration (MPA) from University of San Francisco. I am admitted
into California State Bar and licensed to practice law.

As the current President Elect for the California Federation of Business and Pro-
fessional Women (CFBPW) I look forward to being installed as the next Presi-
dent of CFBPW on May 20, 2023.
I feel honored and privileged to follow the footsteps of the previous distin-
guished leaders of this organization and look forward to collectively cooperate
and work as a team in continuing the dedicated work of my predecessors and
more recently our current President, Bessie Hirominous.
