Gabriella kurkulis

I'm delivering English lessons at CEIP Daniel Martín School in Madrid, supporting children in an underserved, predominantly immigrant neighborhood and helping expand access to language and opportunity.

Previously, at Jane’s Place Neighborhood Sustainability Initiative, I researched affordable housing patterns, supported housing-security policy, and helped plan public outreach and tenant-support campaigns. I built relationships with residents and local partners through grassroots engagement and coalition-building.

At Tulane Hillel, I coordinated event photography and produced digital content to strengthen visibility for community initiatives and program goals. I also supported an inclusive nonprofit community center focused on leadership, engagement, and key policy issues.

My work also includes grant research and sustainability education at ricRACK, where I identified funding opportunities for textile recycling programs. I bring research, communications, relationship-building, and conversational Spanish to people-facing work serving community impact.
