I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I am a proud first-generation graduate from Cal State LA with a degree in Finance. I began my career in the personal finance world before discovering that my favorite part of working with numbers was the people they impact. I love combining data and logic with the human side of our work. This passion led me to transition into the non-profit space. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which has allowed me to connect with many people and bring my financial background to the causes I truly care about.

Outside of spreadsheets and accounting, I love spending quality time with my wife and our dog, Nala. You can usually find us scouting out the best local food spots or planning our next travel adventure. I’m also a dedicated Arsenal FC supporter (COYG!), a fan of a great movie or TV series, and a firm believer that most problems can be solved with a solid plan and a great cup of coffee.
