I am a firm believer in cultivating strong community partnerships and supporting one another. I enjoy effectively collaborating with organizations & companies to fulfill business needs while developing educational employment opportunities for various underprivileged communities. As an alumni of AmeriCorps and JusticeCorps, my core passion of helping others began to expand. I was given the opportunity to provide assistance within the Los Angeles Superior Court self-help centers and small claims court within the Department of Consumer Affairs. In addition, I was able to assist, provide support and guidance to low-income families as a facilitator of early education. Today I strive to support, strengthen and provide strategies within higher education, continuing education, and employment.
