What can I do for District 2?

Lorie Zapf was born in Los Angeles to Helena Garcia, a first-generation American, and Alex Roseff, a jazz musician. Her childhood was tumultuous, and by her first year of high school, Lorie and her two siblings were separated and placed into foster care. Like most kids in the foster care system, when she turned 18 she was completely on her own, but had determined she would put herself through college.

Lorie received a Master's Degree in Marketing Communications from the University of Denver.

 

She and her husband moved to San Diego and started their own business, producing an all-natural energy bar, which was sold in grocery, health food, and sporting goods stores across the United States and Canada.

 

In 2010, she became the first Latina ever elected to the San Diego City Council. She and her husband Eric live with their two daughters and rescue dog in their Bay Ho home of 17 years.
