Currently, he focuses on mid-distance running and aspires to compete in a triathlon, reflecting his ongoing commitment to personal growth and discipline.. Atty. Anthony's dedication to hard work began early—he entered the workforce at age 15, starting in the file room of a medical office in San Francisco. He soon joined McDonald’s Corporation, where he gained hands-on experience in customer service, food preparation, and operational efficiency. Over the years, he held a wide variety of positions, including waiter, barback, construction apprentice, office mover, event staff, special education aide, retail sales associate, telemarketer, legal assistant, and both inside and outside sales representative.. While pursuing his degree full-time at San Francisco State University, Atty. Remo Luna often worked up to three jobs simultaneously.

When I am not litigating workers' compensation claims, I spend much of time with family or volunteering.  I sit on several local non-profit boards and volunteer as a soccer coach, baseball coach, and at meditation retreats throughout Northern California.
