I am a passionate consultant who works diligently to produce the best results and outcomes for the clients and communities I serve. During my career, I served as the Planning and Public Involvement Program Manager for the Alamo Area Metropolitan Planning Organization. Where I led a team of professionals to increase awareness of the MPO’s various planning initiatives including active transportation planning, environmental planning, safety performance management, and congestion management. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from the University of the Incarnate Word. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have over 27 years of experience in facilitation, community relations, public involvement, and planning. Throughout my career, I have organized and moderated public meetings, facilitated public workshops and design charrettes, developed print and web-based outreach materials, coordinated press coverage, and targeted public outreach to under-served communities. In my years working as a private consultant, I led strategic planning efforts and conducted research for over 40 comprehensive plans, transportation plans, corridor studies, and other projects in Texas and around the country.
