YEARS IN TRUCKEE My whole life... 25 years! I was born and raised in Truckee and left for college in 2016. I returned in 2021 and kicked off my professional journey.

WHY TRUCKEE I chose to come back to my hometown after earning my degree. The simple answer is the people— I have lifelong bonds with the people I grew up and went to school with. Nurturing your high school friendships in your adult life is a special thing. My parents embarked on a brave journey from Mexico in their early 20s, seeking opportunity and I’m just lucky they landed in beautiful Truckee, California!

BIG LIFE The AMAZING people you can find in Truckee. We have such a welcoming community and truly some of the friendliest people you can meet. There are tons of opportunities and room to grow if you’re passionate about something. And of course... Mother Earth! I may not be the average local who skis or snowboards but I sure do have an appreciation for our phenomenal surroundings and love to take advantage of the outdoors in the summer.
