Anna loves nature, manning our 'clean machine' wagon to clean up the neighborhood trash, hiking, and taking care of our many plants.

What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreFrom a young age, Anna has had an undeniable bond with the natural world. Whether it’s the gentle rhythm of waves or the rustle of wind through the pines, nature seems to speak to her in a language she understands instinctively.
Anna absolutely adores cats, and her love for them grows every day. She’s fascinated by their cleverness, always amazed at how they seem to figure things out on their own. Whether it's opening a door, finding the perfect napping spot, or getting into something they shouldn’t, their independence and resourcefulness captivate her. She often talks about how much she admires how cats do things on their own terms. Their ability to move with such grace, yet show affection when they want to.
Anna Banana has become a little neighborhood hero with her trusty wagon, “The Clean Machine.” on weekends she heads out determined to make a difference. Armed with gloves, trash bags, her grabatron Chloe, and a bright smile, she walks from court to court picking up litter others leave behind. Her wagon rattles along beside her, filling with cans, wrappers, and bottles in the trash/recycling bins attached to the wagon. Sometimes, even her boxer dog Leia (her Equality Support dog) pulls the wagon!
