We are 43 years young and still “Rowdy” as ever. Our members are veteran Rotarians who bring their life experiences to meetings which have a benefit of entertainment and knowledge. One of our major scholarship beneficiaries are the amazing students at Everett Alvarez High School, they have extremely active Interact Club which keeps us motivated servicing our community. As one of the newer members, I look forward to bringing a fresh perspective while also embracing the successes of those who have come before me.
A little about me, I am married with 4 children and a graduate of Everett Alvarez High School (C/O 2000). I’ve been in banking for the past 22 years and currently the Bank Manager of the Salinas branch of Santa Cruz County Bank and I also volunteer as a board member for the Salinas Valley Airshow. A few of my hobbies include driving my old school C10 truck and running sound for some local bands. When I was asked to join the Steinbeck Rotary Club, I felt a sense of honor as I have always looked up to Rotarians and understood them to be important people in the community...people of action. Now that I am a Rotarian, I understand that Rotary is not just about the club and club members, but its about the communities we serve. My goal and hope during my time as President is to make an impact on our community, one person at a time.
