Veteran Leader

I’m a U.S. Army veteran, and I’ve had the privilege of serving for and being mentored by some of our military’s most exceptional leaders. I bring a wealth of experience in team building, communication, crisis management, and strategic planning.

As the Director of Targeted Outreach at the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI), I am responsible for leading a diverse team, managing critical projects, partnering with community-based organizations to provide financial literacy presentations and workshops to consumers across California.

Career Mentor

With a passion for guiding and empowering others, I have an established reputation as a career mentor known for my actively listening and empathy. Whether it’s mentoring young professionals or those transitioning careers, I love to hear about the aspirations of others while sharing insightful guidance on leadership, skill-building, and professional development. Through my commitment to fostering growth and confidence, I have been in charge of numerous internship programs and have successfully helped many mentees realize their potential and achieve their career goals.

Business Analyst

I have a track record of consulting with businesses to help them streamline their processes, build collaborating teams, and identify opportunities. As a former IT professional, I bridge the gap between technology and business needs, leveraging emerging innovations to deliver impactful results.

What others are sharing about me…

I was extremely lucky to have a supervisor like Kue during my time as an intern. He set an example of what it means to be a strategic thinker and helped countless aspiring marketing professionals throughout his career. He always makes time for the individuals that report to him and cares about the growth/success of the organization he works for – qualities of a true leader!
