“I had the pleasure of working with Lupita at Mission Neighborhood Health Center, and I can confidently say that she was an outstanding resource for our organization. During her time at MNHC, Lupita significantly increased our organization’s exposure through social and traditional media channels, including radio and TV. Her efforts helped us to connect with a wider audience and increase our funding and stakeholder support. One of the things that impressed me most about Lupita was her innovative approach to marketing and communication. She was always coming up with new ideas and strategies to promote our services and engage with the community. Not only was she a great leader, but she also encouraged all employees to be part of the process and contribute their ideas in a positive and collaborative manner. Lupita’s positive attitude and dedication to her work were truly inspiring, and it was a pleasure to work alongside her. I highly recommend Lupita to any organization seeking a talented and innovative marketing and communications professional.”

“It has been my pleasure to work with Lupita for almost 4 years. Lupita’s passion for her craft is admirable and refreshing. Lupita worked with multiple project delivery teams I was assigned to on public engagement and outreach, both as part of the CEQA and NEPA processes and as part of the Caltrans effort to engage local communities prior to and during construction. Lupita is a true idea person. When working with her I appreciated that she proposed, planned, and executed multiple different strategies of public engagement; in each case, executing the strategy that was appropriate for the project scope, resources available, and for the needs brought forward by the project development team. Lupita’s energy when dealing with internal and external partners is impressive. She truly loves what she does and she’s great at it. She dedicates herself to understanding feedback from external partners and working with her internal team to create solutions. Lupita will be an asset to any forward-thinking organization looking for a strong public affairs manager.”

“When I was Press and Trade Consul of Mexico in San Francisco I had the great opportunity and honor to meet Lupita. She is really a bicultural person, high profile for covering news for 6 years for Telemundo, mainly in the San Francisco Bay Area. But lupita has many skills and outstanding woman with charisma and leadership. She is also a woman with great fairness and sensibility to understand and support minorities of all kinds. I like her very much as a professional woman in Media, Public Relations, Master of Ceremonies and she has very good humor, always with a nice smile and great beautiful personality, a real Mexican Ambassador woman with beauty, intelligence, and elegance.”
