San Salvador, El
Salvador on July
28, 1964. My father
was an American
Diplomat and
met my mom on
his first overseas
assignment, Brazil.
I spent my first
fifteen years as a
“diplomatic brat”,
living in: El Salvador, Colombia, Costa
Rica and Ecuador. While baptized in the
New Church, (the largest Swedenborgian
denomination) I only started learning about
it in Costa Rica, after my best friend, Cathy
Osuna died of heart failure at the age of 13.
In 1979, the U.S. State Dept. relocated us,
permanently to the U.S. I have been living
in Fairfax Co., Virginia since then, except
for two years in my religion’s college, The
Academy of the New Church, (1983-1985)
and three years in San Diego (1996-1999).
I got a B.A. degree in History from George
Mason University in 1989. I worked for ten
years in the book retail industry, (1985-
1995), but after a car accident, lost my job
and my brother in San Diego suggested that
I try for an accounting degree, because of
my love for numbers. I studied accounting
in SDSU and started working on accounting
in San Diego. But I am a dyed-in-the -wool
Northeasterner, and on January 1999 went
back to Fairfax and the wonderful Northeast.
I worked in accounting for three years, but
quit to take care of my parents on Sept.
2001. After I was in a position to work again
a year later, I decided to leave accounting,
since financial accounting showed no
respect for the rules of mathematics, and
that bothered my sensibility of the beauty
of numbers. I decided to go back to retail,
this time in Trader Joe’s, which I knew was a
great place to shop for great food, and soon
found out that it was a great place to work.
I have been with Trader Joe’s for 10 years,
and love it.vizualizați mai puține
