Raised in the fertile land of the Salinas Valley also known as “the salad bowl of the world”I have a deep interest and find joy in helping people improve their life story. My volunteer efforts slowly began in 2018 after a cancer diagnosis. It was after I made the decision to leave my beloved corporate career in agriculture and dive into the non-profit cancer landscape. Although nervous at first, I have no regrets. I was not surprised to learn that there were not many cancer resources in the farming town where I live to impact positive outcomes. Most recently, I have worked with Cancer Patients Alliance where I am a program manager and direct several. initiatives involving cancer in immigrants and underserved communities. One of my greatest hopes is to create awareness and bring more quality cancer treatment to local clinics and hospitals.I live by the words“Be Kind”and find inspiration in my children each day.I believe humans are much like plans that need nurturing to grow. In my free time I love exploring the lovely state of California and visiting my parents, sisters, and nieces. I enjoy great conversation over a delicious meal.
