Since 2014, I have served as the Development Manager at the Living Coast Discovery Center, a small non-profit zoo and aquarium in Chula Vista, CA. During that time, I oversaw our grants management process, sending over 45 applications every year and working with staff to ensure accurate reporting. I also managed our annual fundraising event and converted to a virtual event in 2020 due to the pandemic.

In addition to experience working at the Living Coast, I worked for San Diego History Center in Balboa Park and managed their membership program. I was also involved in several regional initiatives including the Balboa Park Explorer Pass and chairing the San Diego County Membership Managers Collaborative which launched the Big Exchange, a county-wide membership benefit event.

I look forward to hearing from you and discussing prospective projects for your organization.
