Meet the PIMistresses

Elaine Sosa is the Web PIMstress and a co-founder of San Francisco Women on the Web. She is also a former stockbroker who grew weary of going to work at 6 AM. In 1994, Elaine left Wall Street behind and started Javawalk, a coffee walking tour in the heart of San Francisco, as a way to legitimize her coffeehouse addiction. She also started to write. Focusing on food and travel writing, Elaine has traveled the length and breadth of the U.S., writing about everything from spas in the Southwest to "Friday Lunch" in New Orleans' French Quarter. Having lived in Mexico for a year in the late 80s, our southern neighbor is also a favorite subject. Elaine has been published in Diversion and Travel Holiday magazines on the print side, with Travelocity and Sally's Place being regular outlets on the Web. Web content development and essays on pop culture are also part of Elaine's portfolio. Her primary gig these days is as publisher of Road Sage, a travel website which chronicles road trips live as they're happening. Road Sage provides timely and discerning destination information on a variety of U.S. and overseas locales.

When not (java)walking or writing, Elaine can be found running, hiking or indulging in urban adventures that involve a bicycle, although road trips involving beat-up Chevy trucks occupy a special place in her heart.




Suzanne Anderson is resident PIMstress and Mixer Manager for The Web PIM. She is also Founder, V.P. of Finance and C.O.O. of Artist One, a 21st Century Music Company that integrates "offline" and "online" business models, thereby enabling artists and labels to produce, market, distribute and promote as never before. Before joining Artist One, Suzanne was a Vice President in the International Sales Trading Department at NationsBanc Montgomery Securities, following Japanese and Asian institutions. Suzanne spent six years at NBMS, where her rise to V.P. was a rapid one. She was also a macroeconomic researcher at Transamerica Criterion Funds and, prior to that, a product marketing manager at Critical Industries.

When not crunching numbers, Suzanne volunteers her time to San Francisco Women on the Web and other women's orgs, loves to travel and hones her silky-smooth Texas twang. She's also a gourmet cook and mixes a mean pitcher of sangria.
