I am originally from Brazil, but have lived in Arizona for over 35 years, so I am pretty much a Phoenician. I am a graduate of Arizona State University. My Bachelors is in Food & Nutrition Management and my Masters is in Human Resource Management & Employment Law. I have been in Child Nutrition for a little over 11 years and I love it. In my child nutrition journey I have worked where I was in a self operated district, I have been the liaison where the district has had a 3rd party vendor that provided food service as well as I have been on the vendor side working for a district.
