What I'm looking for

I seek a community-oriented role managing nutrition, education, or sustainability programs where I can drive measurable impact, partner with stakeholders, and grow program capacity.

I am a dedicated program specialist with hands-on experience in child nutrition, community food programs, sustainability initiatives, and education. I have implemented and managed USDA-compliant nutrition programs, coordinated food distribution and volunteer efforts, and delivered targeted instruction in language and academic skills.

I combine strong program documentation and data-tracking skills with fluency in Spanish and French to improve service access and outcomes. I prioritize measurable impact, collaboration with community partners, and clear communication to strengthen program continuity and student success.
