Born in Austin, TX and raised in the bay area, Rebecca Garcia-Criado graduated from Cal State East Bay with a bachelor’s degree in health science, administration and management with the intentions of working in the health industry. Shortly after graduation, however, her journey in finance began. Starting as a receptionist at a small landscape company, Rebecca quickly transitioned into payroll. Since then Rebecca has worked with primarily construction companies, and has developed a love for the environment and the tasks that come with payroll.

Rebecca resides in Rancho Cordova with her husband and our dog Oso, who is a 113 lb. rotty.  In my spare time I love going to local festivals, hiking, being at the lake with the dog and playing a variety of games (indoors or outdoors) like dice, dominos and corn hole, anything really that involves a little competition.
