About

Early Childhood Educator, Master Gardener, and Community Engagement Professional with a deep passion for connecting people, nature, and learning. Seeking a position where I can build inclusive, curiosity-driven environments that blend education, sustainability, and creativity—that help all people, see the natural world as both a classroom and a community. As a certified Master Gardener, I’ve designed and led school garden programs for PreK–6th grade, integrating STEAM and environmental literacy into daily lessons. For more than 10 years as a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) host, I’ve connected families with local farmers—fostering not just access to nutritious food, but a shared sense of purpose and place. Previously, as a Special Project Coordinator in the Miami-Dade County Mayor’s Office, I managed cross-agency partnerships and public initiatives that strengthened community ties and highlighted Miami’s civic and cultural vitality. That experience, combined with my background in education, allows me to bridge public institutions, schools, and families to bring meaningful programs to life. My professional goal is to work within a position to create experiences where people of all ages can discover how lifelong learning, health, history, and environment are beautifully interconnected. Core strengths: Program design & coordination (education + wellness) Community outreach & partnership development Family engagement & experiential education
