I love connecting the helpers of the world to their favorite part of the mission! "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." - Fred RogersPassionate about the power of a diverse community, my life-long dedication to uplifting, empowering, and moving individuals to create an impact is what motivates me to show up for others every day. I get to work with the best parts of humanity and create bridges for anyone to become a part of a bigger movement and an agent for change.Since my time at Northern Illinois University, I've gained experience in nonprofit development with a focus in community relations, donor service, special event support, volunteer engagement, social media marketing, and in-kind donation acquisition and procurement. Being the ultimate team player is my goal while taking full advantage of opportunities of self-development and independent projects. In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering and meeting like-minded people that are the movers and the shakers of our communities. I joined the Hispanic Alliance of Career Enhancement's Young Professionals Board right out of college and learned vital professional skills in nonprofit fundraising, networking, and organizational communications while raising awareness for a mission I'm passionate about.
