"Since Igraduated from Fresno State, I went into the Police Academy in Fresno. I graduated in December 2009 and was hired by Kerman Police Department on August 2010. I am working as a police officer at Kerman police department and I'm on patrol right now so I'm not able to narrow down my passion for the job, but I like to pay special attention to domestic violence calls and calls involving children. When I'm not working, im catching up on sleep, working out ( it relieves the stress) and reading. I love this job even though its hard and Im around high stress situations daily."

"New passions: I have finally become serious about learning and documenting traditional food practices and how to make traditional food from both my parents. Just recently my father taught me how to make cuv (similar to sake) and my mother taught me how to make tofu. These are traditions that I believe are so valuable in keeping me close to my heritage.
Life Changes: It took traveling the world to realize how much I really love the Central Valley and the richness right here. So it's settled. I'm staying and making it home!"
