Although I now live in Pleasanton, family is always family. My parents live in Castro Valley with 5 cats, 2 little girls that I raised from birth practically, a pure blue point siamese baby that was given to us by a friend, a wild Annie orphan, and our mean Sam-bo that the neighbors adopted. My dad works about five minutes away from their house (great commute) as and at Gary R. Woodruff, CPA. My sister, Michele Rose Woodruff now lives in Boston where she attends Harvard Law School.

My friends also are living quite far away lately. My best friend, Katie, lives in Seattle where she will soon graduate from University of Washington, and my close buddy, Brandon Rusk, lives in Santa Barbara.
