What is your fondest memory of living in Sonoma County?

I was born in Healdsburg and raised in Santa Rosa.  I loved being a little girl in the small town of Santa Rosa when Santa Rosa was still a small town. 

Describe what you experience as the greatest treasure of Sonoma County.

Sonoma County is paradise.  Our climate is mild.  Here we are close to some of the most beatiful and spectacular coast lines I have seen.  We are also within a short distance to the fantastic city of San Francisco.  We are fortunate to be near the Sierra Mountains including Lake Tahoe. 

What for you defines 'quality of life'?

Being able to live where I am, close to the places I love to visit like the ocean, San Francisco and Tahoe.  Spending time with my husband and children.  Watching them be able to grow up in such a wonderful area.

What gets you really excited about your business?

I love connecting with other businesses in my county.  Sure we service the greater bay area, but I get very excited about connecting with Sonoma County.

Thinking about your business, what keeps you up at night?

Not getting our name and reputation out enough in Sonoma County.  We are a locally family owned and operated business for the last 30 years.  Our plant is located in Santa Rosa.  We thrive on being green and have the best technology and equipment to help us accomplish that.  We are known for our excellent quality, competitive prices.  We service many medical facilities, finer restaurants and wineries throughout Sonoma and Napa County and much of the greater bay area. I would love for the rest of Sonoma County to know about us and what a valuable asset we could be for their business. 

If you could have one wish come true for Sonoma County, what would it be?

For Sunset Linen and Uniform to be the linen company any business in Sonoma County would think of first.  We are the leaders in customer service and are very close by to help.

What is your favorite quote or motto?

The harder your work, the luckier you get.

What or who do you most admire in Sonoma County?

Location!  Again being located close to the ocean, mountains and the city by the bay. 

What brought you to Sonoma County?

I was born here.
