My Story
I grew up in Bogotá, Colombia, where water service interruptions and the need to boil water taught me its precious value early on. My family moved to San Ramon, where my father ran a small business and my mother helped with the business while raising our family.
My grandfather helped establish Colombia’s first national parks, instilling in me the values of education, environmental protection, and social justice.
Experience & Qualifications
I graduated from UC Davis with a Bachelor of Science and later earned a Master’s in Public Health from UC Berkeley.
I began my career managing a health promotion program in the Bay Area. From there, I worked with Contra Costa County’s Public Health Department to improve health and prevent disease in vulnerable communities.
As Chief of Staff for a County Supervisor, I led health, education, and environmental initiatives and worked on planning, zoning, and budgeting. I later served as Community Engagement Manager at the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and Manager of the Building Healthy Communities Program at Contra Costa Public Health.
Serving Ward 2
My focus is always on the community.
My education and career have prepared me to serve Ward 2 on the EBMUD Board of Directors. Whether developing policies, managing budgets, or improving quality of life, my focus is always on the community.
I have seen firsthand the dedication of EBMUD’s staff and their commitment to providing reliable, high-quality water and wastewater services.
