MENTOR

As a dedicated member of the Kern County creative community, I believe in the transformative power of art—not only as a personal form of expression, but also as a means to inspire healing, connection, and positive social change. My involvement with the Bakersfield Art Association (BAA) reflects this belief and demonstrates my commitment to strengthening the role of the arts in our local culture. I have served as a board member and currently hold the position of Vice President (volunteer) through June 30, 2026. Additionally, I manage BAA’s Facebook and Instagram accounts (volunteer) to help extend the organization’s reach and support its mission. As a member of this nonprofit, artist-run organization, I strive to contribute, in small but meaningful ways, to a stronger, more connected, and creatively inspired Kern County.
