When did you first start working for the Earthquakes? 

  • It was 2017, at the time I just wanted to be able to meet more people. This gave me an opportunity to interact with more people and also be able to use my Spanish. I was born in Salinas and moved to San Jose in the 3rd grade. 

Have you always been a Quakes fan?

  • I was not a Quakes fan before I started working here. Ya know I was a Bay Area fan and would watch them if they were on. I remember my cousin who is an avid soccer fan, brought me to a game back in the 70’s. I still remember Krazy George and it was super fun. 

Has there been any memories that stick out since you have start

  • It was wonderful to see Wondo and breaking records. It was amazing and amazing to see one of our own accomplish that. I was able to work that game so seeing it in person was crazy. I was collecting all the pins for all of the goals he was making. I have had Will Ferrell in one of my suites which was really cool. 

Who is your favorite Earthquakes player of all time? 

  • My favorite player of all time would of course be Wondo. He's a great player. I also love Cade Cowell. His family comes into the suite where I work and they are so sweet. 

What does receiving this honor from the Earthquakes mean to you?

  • It is very humbling and I am honestly very shocked. I was surprised when they told me because this is something I love to do and I call this my fun job, so to be recognized by the club for this means so much. I have felt like family ever since I started working here.
