Board & Management Team : Marilu Gabriel

Fiscal Manager - Serving since 1994

Marilu Gabriel

Marilu Gabriel has been with Solano Family & Children’s Services since 1994. She began as the agency’s Bookkeeper and immediately helped develop the agency’s current Accounting Department as its first Fiscal Manager.

Marilu started her career in the Philippines, where she worked as an Accounting Specialist for 14 years before moving to the U.S. in 1992. When she arrived in California, she immediately enrolled at the Fairfield Adult School to improve her computer skills. Each step Marilu took in the field of accounting, moving to California, attending the Fairfield Adult School, etc., has led her to be in the right place, at the right time – at SFCS in 1994.

Marilu loves her job and takes great pride in her contributions to our SFCS family and to our child care provider community. She has done her best to adapt to the culture and traits of being an American, all while not losing her own Filipino culture, values, and customs.
