Accomplishments
Executive level Social Work and educator for more than 15 years supporting and advocating for the youth and adolescents from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, in the non-profit sector and unified school system. Brought in a fiscal school year budget of $190,000 a year through grant funding, to successfully run an educational afterschool program. In July 2023, I received a $350,000 grant from The Cummings Foundation to help with the educational, housing, food, and overall social emotional needs of a low-income community I served. in 2022 I received a grant for $20,000 from the Department of Conservation and Recreation to take my adolescent learners to Washington DC for one week. Through my efforts, I successfully hosted various meet and greet functions for my students with local politicians like Boston's former Governor Charlie Baker. I successfully was able to have my younger learners visit the Massachusetts State House with VIP access to all the executive suits in the State House. These are a few of the foundations I received monies from and a few of my accomplishments. I have dedicated my life to the education, success, and wellness of the youth, adolescents, and their families within any community I establish myself in. In 1993, I volunteered for health and wellness, educational and after school programs in Southern California, and then in Sarasota, Florida from 1997 to 1999.
