New job with travel from Bay Area

Hi All, I have a new job that will require travel about once every three weeks - not huge, but still making me think about whether or not I should try to focus on one airline. Thanks in advance for any advice (& I'm still learning the abbreviations!)

(1) What is most important to you in a FFP?
upgrades on travel, award trips, good award redemption rates, the best value

(2) How many miles do you usually fly each year & in what class? How many flights/sectors?
18 - 20 RTs/year

(3) What types of fares do you usually buy ?
Economy

(4) Can you choose your airlines and/or class of service? Airline most flown? Do you travel for work and/or pleasure?
I am free to choose airlines but need to fly economy (or pay for difference myself) Mostly travel for work with about 3 leisure trips/year. This past year I have mostly flown AA, SW, & DL.

(5) Which routes and airlines do you fly most often
US Domestic: SLC, DEN, RDU, DCA, IAD, BWI, MCO

(6) What is your home airport?
SFO or OAK

(7) Do you have FFP status of any kind in an airline? What is it? Do you have any miles banked in a FFP?
No status....yet

(8) Preferred Airlines
Virgin, SW, AA, DL
