ABOUT 

As a passionate contributor to community outreach and civil engagement, I have spent countless hours as an advocate for workers’ rights. I have aided nonprofit organizations on behalf of a large scope of healthcare issues, supporting equal rights for all, fundraising and addressing food deserts across the city. My experience as a founding member and former Vice President of a union, placed me in a position to build a rapport with community organizations and politicians based on my solution driven partnerships as a leader in various negotiations. Then and now, I support the causes that are most important to the working public such as: access to quality healthcare, respectable living wage, affordable housing, safe working conditions and expanding the budget for post high school education. 

In 2010, situations aligned at Temple University Hospital, which established an audience comprised of political and community advocates which lead to an investment in the community through a joint venture at E3 Logan Power Center with me as the liaison. The outreach increased the group’s understanding of our diverse careers and allowed our members to enhance their educational experience. As a non-traditionally educated person, it has been my goal to share how trade programs can enrich a person’s life and provide a higher-than-expected lifestyle. Collaboration with Senators Shirley Kitchen and Mark Cohen to provide diabetic evaluations and social services information to constituents during community health fairs was nurtured as the result of a successful campaign. In 2016, Earth Day Network subcontracted Galaxy Enterprise. From the adventure I was tasked with educating a neighborhood on decreasing educational resources, food deserts created by the closing of local markets and the lack of quality recycle station. The positive work of the campaign increased my responsibilities to executive producer of a service announcement (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khTaCQo9ZEA) that was very successful with its message.)
