I was a Junior in College at Sac State and needed a Part Time job that would allow me to focus on school. The craigslist ad was looking for an admin assistant; someone to help with the mail and other tasks. It was exactly what I was looking for so I applied. The next morning, bright and early, I got a call from Larry Manning. He said they were looking to close the app but wanted to interview me first and could I meet him at Starbucks in 10 minutes. Well, I was all of 21 years old and wasn’t ready for such an early call time. I was honest and told him I was not ready and he said, “No problem, just throw on some jeans, casual is fine.” The rest is history 😊

Insurance was never something I was even aware of until I was in college working towards my accounting degree and took a summer job helping an insurance agency design and implement an accounting system.

I was born in St Louis, Missouri and moved to California when I was five. We were only supposed to stay in California for five years and move back closer to my extended family. We moved to this little town, El Dorado Hills. When we moved here, there was a Raley’s and Community Center. Years later, it has grown into a beautiful community. After five years, our family decided we were staying. After college, I didn’t go far. My husband and I purchased a house here in El Dorado Hills. Funny enough, we just bought a new home in the neighborhood where I grew up. Grandma loves being close to Mr. Eli.
