Her background also includes roles as PR and Media Specialist at Links Media and in marketing and public relations at Altronics Communications. Her commitment to the Hispanic business community dates back to 2006, when she served as Office Manager and Membership Relations Assistant at the Mid-Atlantic Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, coordinating logistics for more than 50 events a year.
