It is fair to say that every one of us present tonight has had the chance to meet Florita. As Manager of Sales, she is the face of the Long Beach Symphony and the woman to speak with for the best seats at our concerts. But more importantly, it is the woman and friend, and "welcoming spirit" that Florita personifies.

In her own words, “I love my job. I couldn’t ask to for a better group of people to work with, including staff, musicians, our top notch conductor, and the best patrons in the world --hands down! -- always supportive, generous and understanding. It’s my joy to support each of you, make sure you’re happy and enjoying your seats, and loving your experience.”

When not taking care of all of us, Florita is hanging out with friends and family or “out fishing!”

Thank you Florita for all you do and Happy 30th Anniversary with your Long Beach Symphony!
