Margaret is a fifth generation native of the Bay Area. She matriculated at Saint Mary’s College in the Integral Program because it focuses on a wide variety of inquiry and discussion topics based on the Great Books. This theme of diversity has continued throughout her varied work history including being a nanny, a car salesperson, a clerk in a law office, retail sales jobs, the pharmacy manager at a veterinary hospital, a telephone operator, an elementary school band aid and ice pack dispenser and a saloonkeeper. She has years of experience in HR, in addition to a decade being a bookkeeper for a variety of firms including an SaaS startup, and two different non-profits. Margaret makes time for volunteering every week in gratitude for all life has given her.

“I am part of an engineering family. My father was an engineer, I am married to an engineer and am raising an aspiring engineer (although I don’t think you can aspire to being an engineer, I think you are born an engineer!)
