Advocacy

Advocacy is a way of life and a responsibility that I do not take lightly. I was a child when I knew and felt the need to stand up for my rights and that of others. It is an honor and a privilege for me to share my learnings of this long journey. The experience has not always been easy, but it has been rewarding. I am looking forward to continuing to work with global changemakers. See below some of the current social change projects I am actively co-coordinating or supporting.

Diversity and Language Access

Languages access to underserved populations is a foundational part of my work and as part of my advocacy initiatives. My team and I are always ready to support monolingual populations, coordinate volunteers, and facilitate needs assessments. Take a read of the article that quotes me discussing the challenges about translations during the Napa, Solano, Sonoma, and Mendocino Fires. https://napavalleyregister.com/news/local/how-napa-county-scrambled-to-fix-spanish-language-co
