About Me


I was recently hired by the City of Vacaville as a Human Resources Technician. I absolutely love it! I have worked so hard to get to where I am today and I can honestly say that all of the hard work has definitely paid off. ____________________________________________________________ __________

____________________________________________________________ _________About my Husband and Daughter: I have been with my husband Mike for over 7 years now, we just got married on July 7, 2006. He's currently working for San Joaquin County as a Sheriff's Deputy. Meilani and I are so proud of him. I would also like to thank him for being so supportive when I was going to school and working, especially when I was interning with the City of Davis 40 hrs a week and working at Hisuis for another 20 + hours a week.Our daughter Meilani is three and was born ON OUR 4 YEAR ANNIVERSARY. She's outgoing and social just like her father. She's got his eyes and his hair as well. I love them both so much. ____________________________________________________________ _________

My Interests

EBAY! and PURSES! Reading, when I have time (Dan Brown & Harry Potter), Surfing the web in general, family outings when we have a chance, just hanging out with friends, family, whoever (when I'm not working or at school). Going to comedy shows (although I've been to just one and it was great! We are planning to go to another one in Oct in San Diego). From time to time I enjoy scrapbooking & cross stitching (although I haven't cross stitched since the baby was born, and the pictures are just piling up.. so I've temporarily given up)

I'd like to meet:

Friends that I haven't seen in ages, people that I've crossed paths with in the past, and people who I don't get to see as much as I'd like..

Music:

I like a lot of different kinds of music, it just depends on my mood.

Movies:

I love watching comedies, action/adventure, and I love scary movies.. even though I always cover my eyes during the scary parts.. lol

Television:

LOST (Waiting for the season to come out on DVD), Law & Order SVU, Law & Order CI, Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, Friends, Without a Trace, That 70's Show, Cops, Video Justice and anything else that seems interesting.

Books:

Thank you Jason for all of your recommendations, I've liked every single book that you've told me to read! Good looking out!Yeah I'm a nerd, I like reading! I love Harry Potter!! (I've read ALL of them)The last one was THE BEST!! It took me 3 days to read the whole thing because I actually had to sleep and work, but it was really really good. (yes I'm a nerd, but who cares), Angels & Demons, The Davinci Code, Deception Point all by Dan Brown. I'm waiting for another book to come out by Dan Brown, hopefully it's released soon. If you like The Davinci Code, I recommend reading The Templar Legacy by Steve Barry.. it's really good.I also recommend reading The Eagle's Shadow: Why America Fascinates and Infuriates the World by Mark Hertsgaard. I read it for one of my classes and it was incredibly interesting and enlightening.The Eight by Katherine Neville is also a good one. I am also reading several books on Human Resources Principles, Practices, etc, collective bargaining, and one on HR in the public sector.Oh and I forgot my "bible" at work, the Personnel, Policies, and Procedures and the MOUs (contract agreements) for the various bargaining units. Oh and did I mention that I LOVED MY JOB?!

Heroes:

Anyone who has achieved great things in the face of overwhelming odds or opposition. Sometimes the best motivating factor is being able to prove that you can do something when nobody else believes that you can.
