Sylvia moved to Sonoma County in 1986 and her focus has been on raising a family, and giving back to the community, spending most of the last 18 years of her available time on nonprofit and volunteer work with an emphasis on youth in our community. She particularly enjoys contributing to musical and educational programs.
Early in 2009, Sylvia decided to continue her lifelong curiosity for learning and began the Human Resource Management certificate program at Santa Rosa Junior College. Having met the Leap Solutions partners through their work with Leadership Santa Rosa, she was hired by Leap Solutions as a project manager as well as intern in the area of Human Resources. Her skills of community involvement, organization and lifelong learning make a strong fit with the culture of Leap.
