Ramona was born in Philadelphia less than one year after her only sibling, Kevin. Their father was a paratrooper in the US Army and the family traveled around the world and country, moving every three years. They lived in Hawaii, Panama, Germany, New Mexico, and finally settled in Philadelphia which was her parents' hometown. Ramona went to high school in Philadelphia and studied business administration at Temple University in Philadelphia. She moved to California the day after she received her bachelor's degree, and has never looked back! Ramona has lived all over Los Angeles, but Playa Vista has been her home since 2003. She feels her greatest accomplishments are her two children, Kimi (age 24) a Sr. Software Consultant and Kendall (age 20), an Airman in the US Air Force. As an empty-nester, Romona has had the opportunity to focus on her business as a financial advisor and spend more time with her husband Darryl. Together they enjoy traveling, planning getaways with family and friends, and pursuing a healthy lifestyle (although they enjoy a good Philly cheesesteak every once in a while). |

Paola's parents are from Sardegna (Italy). They immigrated to Switzerland (the French Part) where she and her older sister were born and raised. Her summer vacations were spent in Italy visiting extended family, either in Sardegna or other parts of Italy.
In Switzerland, Paola earned a CFC in business administration, focusing on accounting. All of the big corps were asking for English speaking recruits, so she came to Southern California as an au pair in 1989. She stayed for a year and went to Santa Monica College to learn English as a second language. She fell in love with the people, the California way of living and so much more! Paola's cousin Marinella was curious about her description of California and followed Paola as an au pair in 1989, and is still here today.
In 1990 Paola went back to Switzerland, but she returned to LA in 1994, 3 days prior the Northridge Earthquake. Paola is still shaking and rattled to this day, however, it did not, ultimately, send her back to Switzerland. She is single, professional, loving her community, family, friends, and ready to give back and make a small difference.
