Q: Tell us about yourself.
A: After moving from Costa Rica in 2002, I immediately fell in love with the small but diverse community of Park City. In my 16 years as a Park City resident, I have dedicated much of my time to volunteering. Holy Cross Ministries, Christian Center, and Peace House are a few of the nonprofit organizations that I have become deeply involved with. My professional work includes medical coding and billing, childcare provider, and now Office Manager at Mountain Top Physical Therapy. I earned a Customs Administration degree in 2002 and my passions include skiing, hiking, enjoying nature, and spending time with my daughter.
Q: What brought you to Park City?
A: After watching the 2002 Olympics I decided to come to Park City on a work and travel program as a way to expand my horizons. The mountains, people, and sense of community drew me in. This really is a special place to work, live and raise a daughter.
Q: Why did you decide to join our Board of Directors?
A: I decided to join your Board of Directors for several reasons. As a Latino, this is a great opportunity for me to bring a voice to the table that is under-represented. I look forward to working hard and to addressing important and systemic issues that people in our town face every day. I want to show that I am here to help and to enact positive change.
Q: How are you able to fit giving into your life here?
A: I started volunteering with Peace House support groups years ago. I serve whenever I have the opportunity and am also involved with programs at Holy Cross Ministries and the Christian Center. Most recently I volunteered with Christian Center Back 2 School Basics and Operation Hope programs. Making time to give back is very important to me.
Q: What do you love about Park City Community Foundation?
A: I love how the Community Foundation brings unique nonprofits with similar goals together to achieve a directive. The sharing of information and ideas between organizations, people, and government make Park City a special place to live and give and Park City Community Foundation is at the center of it all.
Q: How would you spend your perfect Park City Day?
A: My perfect day would involve hiking, reading a book by the lake (science fiction), going for a walk down prospector trail, followed by meeting friends at Sabor Latino for dinner. I try to make the most of our accessibility to the outdoors. My best days are spent with my 10-year-old daughter Mackenzie.
