With over seven years of experience in employee engagement, DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion), social impact, and event management, I have dedicated my career to fostering inclusive and supportive workplace environments. I graduated from San Jose State University with a Master's in Communication Studies, during which I focused my thesis on Cancer Prognostic Conversations between Latino(a) patients and their healthcare providers. This research deepened my understanding of the disparities in health communication and further ignited my passion for advocating for underrepresented communities. I continue to conduct research supporting diverse populations in healthcare.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed and implemented initiatives promoting diversity and creating a sense of employee belonging. I believe that a strong company culture not only enhances employee satisfaction but also drives innovation and productivity. My experience includes leading workshops, organizing community outreach programs, and collaborating with various stakeholders to build systems that uplift marginalized voices.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring different cultures through travel, engaging in community events, and spending time with family and friends. I aim to continue making meaningful contributions in the workplace and the broader community, championing practices that lead to a more equitable future for all.
