Gloria Garcia

Gloria comes to Big Table as a long-time resident of San Diego after having built a close-knit family of 4 adult children with her husband Robert. Her career life spans from bilingual educator to corporate VP in her family’s restaurant chain, Rubio’s Restaurants Inc., to homeschooling her kids and church ministry in the downtown area where she and her husband currently reside. Her love for connecting people to their aspirations and embracing them with hope has been her primary endeavor beginning with her kids and extending to anyone she meets. Gloria loves a great run and coffee with her friends, discovering acoustic entertainment with her husband, swapping music finds with her kids, and spontaneous trips with her entire family. Her daily medicine is a good, solid laugh.
