Hi my name is Brenda Giarratano. My most important part of my life is my family: my husband Nino, my daughter Bianca, my son Nico, and the new addition to our family, Augie. The most interesting place I've traveled to is South Africa. I've also traveled to Europe, Asia, and South America. It wouldn't surprise me if I saw you on my daily trip to Starbucks. I enjoy watching movies in the evenings or even on weekends for relaxation. For exercise, my main workout consists of spinning, running, and yoga. As for chocolate, I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups as well as chocolate chip cookies. Baseball is my life. My husband is the head coach at the University of San Francisco, and my son Nico plays on the team. I've also had the wonderful opportunity to travel to Japan and the Netherlands with the USA collegiate teams. I love shoes - all kinds of shoes. During the school year, I have drop-in hours in Hayes Healy, and I mainly work with students on floors 4, 5, and 9. Something that is close to my heart is organ donation. My husband actually donated his kidney to his father. I'm Brenda Giarratano, and I am CASA.
