VAS KINIRIS
Director of Business Development
Growing up in my father's grocery stores in the Mission, I gained a good foundation in customer service, small business and community.
After graduating from UC Berkeley with an architecture degree, I co-founded a design/ furniture store in the Tenderloin with a $2k investments.
I'm proud of the community of customers and designers that we've fostered and I've learned many valuable lessons in running and sustaining a small business for so long.
I am also the executive director of the Fillmore Merchants Association. During my time, we've been able to unify upper and lower Fillmore Street into a cohesive, dynamic merchant group. I've enjoyed sharing and collaborating with the other merchants to make the FMA a successful organization.
