U Washington admits less than 1% of applicants who are not from states in the Northwest. You also have many other state public schools on your list that admit few non residents with no connection to the state or region. Loyola and Rush expect far more non clinical volunteering hours than you have. I suggest these OOS schools with your stats:
Arizona (Phoenix)
Roseman (when it opens)
NOVA MD
Alice Walton
Belmont
TCU
Wake Forest
Virginia Commonwealth
Eastern Virginia
George Washington
Rosalind Franklin
Medical College Wisconsin
Western Michigan
Oakland Beaumont
Wayne State
Iowa
Penn State
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
Hackensack
New York Medical College
Albany
Vermont
Quinnipiac
UMass
Ponce (St. Louis)
Methodist (when it opens)
 
Because you graduated over a decade ago, why are you interested in medicine in the last 2 years? Can you highlight the hours of activities done while you were in your postbac program (presuming this was done in the last two years)? You'll obviously carry thousands of hours of activities in, so we need help with the chronology.

You don't need to retake a 513. You should talk with admissions staff at the schools where you want to attend. You should include DO schools to increase the probability you can stay in northern California or relocate to the desired big cities that you listed.
 
Remove Univ of AZ PHX as a 513 is not competitive for an OOS candidate. Any leadership?

Sorry if this is a silly question -- Regarding talking to the admissions staff where I would like to attend, do you recommend attending info sessions and asking questions? Or emailing admissions staff regarding my interest and asking questions prior to applying?

As an older nontraditional applicant, I would recommend an individual appointment. Your questions will likely focus on making the case to transition to medicine given your past experiences.
