Rae Gross

I grew up between Northern California in a small farming community called Prunedale a.k.a. "Prune-tucky" and Southern Utah. I went to Southern Utah University on a Speech and Debate scholarship (no one has ever accused me of being shy). I attended graduate school at Eastern New Mexico University, which is located on the New Mexico/Texas border in a town of 12,000 people. What I learned from these experiences was my love of community. I want our Moishe House to provide that small town feel that is hard to find in a large community like Orange County. I currently work as a social media specialist for Boost Mobile. I fill my "free time" training for triathlons, reading, cooking, traveling and enjoy the company of my friends.

I am a So Cal native who has lived in Orange County for 22 years. I am an alumnus of Cal State University Fullerton who works in the world of financing and loves it. I am also currently enrolled at University California Irvine in there Certified Financial Planning Program. With the free time I have I like to be outdoors whether it’s relaxing by the beach or testing my limits hiking a day long trail. But to me life is really about the relationships we build with family and friends. So please check out the OC calendar and come join us for some fun events and make a new friend or two in the process.

I am worldly wander, with roots in Southern California. Somehow in 27 years I've managed to live in 5 different countries for various lengths of time, pick up a second language, develop a knack as a chef, and earn a degree in Nonverbal Communication from UC Santa Cruz. When I'm not running my Natural Foods company, I fill my days cycling, mountain biking, climbing, surfing or teaching martial arts. Moishe House OC, for me, is a wonderful way to bring people together who might have never met otherwise. Traveling the world I learned that community is where you make it - and I want to create a thriving one right here in Orange County.
