After coordinating the Monterey Peninsula Chamber's Brown Bag Seminars for over 25 years - and still continuing to do so - I realized I loved the learning and networking and wanted to try something else. In January, 2016, I launched "Pizza, Pasta & Professionals" in part to share the high quality Cibo Ristorante Italiano (which has fabulous Italian food) with a new audience. I also loved the idea of not having to "rush" off after a seminar and being able to sit, relax,  enjoy great food and service, and talk further about the topic and deepen some of my professional relationships. The January event with Jules Hart about Video Production provided a great evening with wonderful content, delicious food and stimulating conversation. Looking forward to my February event about iPads and iPhones. More great learning and networking to come!
