Lastly, as the founder and leader of my own nonprofit and social impact consulting agency, I have dedicated my career to driving meaningful change in our communities.

Through my agency, I have had the privilege of collaborating with various organizations guiding them in developing and implementing effective social impact strategies. My work is distinguished by a deep commitment to fostering social responsibility and Diversity, Equity, and inclusion (DE&I) initiatives, enabling clients to create positive and lasting impacts in their spheres of influence.
