Hi Nancy,
I saw you speak yesterday at Season’s Marketplace. My name is Ryan Velasco, owner of Filipino Desserts Plus. I have a friend who is very interested in the position that might be available with the Books for the Barrios program. He is an SJSU graduate and use to work for HP in Cupertino. His name is Robert Cruz. I think he would be a very good candidate as he would be an expert at the social networking aspect of the position, as well as a guy who donates his time to various causes and charities. His email is robert_g_cruz@yahoo.com. Thanks.
-Ryan Velasco
