Additionally she also speaks Spanish. During her interview, she said that FW mission and work resonate with her because she wants to work with an organization that offers different programs that help families and the community. This alignment makes her an excellent fit for the role!

I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. I enjoy traveling, crabbing, and cooking. In addition, I love to give back to my community by participating in many various activities and various groups. I come from a large loving and hard-working family, and I was taught at a very young age that family is everything and it’s very important for us to stick together. Over the years, I have continued to live by that motto and I have expanded it to involve community. I believe having a strong family and community goes hand in hand with each other. Together they shape who we are, it creates values, and it strengthens us as one. This is why I feel so passionate about the work I do.
