I am most proud of my son and his accomplishments with his business. It’s very fulfilling to see his dreams coming true, when I see him succeeding I feel like I’m succeeding.

From North Park (Chef and GM at SOL Market)
I am proud of the fact that I’m raising chickens and ducks in my backyard and grow my own vegetables. It sounds lame to other people but I really enjoy it also, it makes my neighbors think I’m a wack-o.

From Mission Hills (EMT)
I’m really proud to be an alumni of UC Berkley. I started off at San Diego City College where I joined in student government and sustainability programs developing a recycling program. Plus form an interest enough to transfer to a world-class university all after being a mediocre high school student.
