Given a hand. Giving a hand.
A ProSci Certified Change Management Practitioner. Change management is the discipline that guides how we prepare, equip and support individuals to successfully adopt change in order to drive organizational success and outcomes in any project, initiative, or in daily operations. This approach, along with our emphasis on relationship-building allows me support groups in their success.


Background
“given a hand. giving a hand."
I am an immigrant and Indigenous person from El Salvador. When I was 9 years old, I moved to an impoverished community in rural California. My hardworking mother believed that my education was the key to a better life. I benefited from a multitude of supports throughout my educational journey, and my professional career has focused on creating pathways of opportunities for others in the community.
As I work with you, I incorporate my bilingual, bicultural, and rural background to gain insights. Together, we explore practical and effective methods of communicating with a range of stakeholders, building relationships, and identifying opportunities for dynamic partnerships.
