- Returned to Midpen as a maintenance tech for Palo Alto Gardens then moved to a lead tech position within 4 months (approx.) and have been working at Kottinger Gardens as the maintenance lead tech / on-site manager.

- I created and lead 4 MidPen annual meeting breakout sessions with teams of up to 9 ppl yielding great results and positive feedback from fellow Midpenners. In 2026 I was asked to pivot from maintenance based session to a CVII team session.
