“I feel grateful and blessed to be in my new position,” said Perrera. “I hope to continue the Idyllwild Post Office’s legacy of outstanding customer service to the community, and to contribute to the overall success of the Postal Service. Trust forms the foundation for everything I do in business and in my personal life.

“As outlined in USPS’s Delivering for America plan, we are modernizing and continually adapting to the changing needs of our customers. Our customers are priority one, whether they’re located in the biggest cities or smaller communities such as Idyllwild.

“I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to my wife Georgia for her continued support and to the leadership team at the USPS San Diego District office for believing in me and giving me this opportunity.”
