With over 10 years of experience, Cynthia has built a reputation for her tireless commitment to creating positive change in the lives of those most in need. As someone who grew up in the region, she understands the unique challenges local communities face, particularly when it comes to accessing vital resources and opportunities. Her work is centered on providing equal access to education, support, and guidance for youth who often lack adequate resources at school and in their neighborhoods.
At Visionary Youth LA, Cynthia works closely with individuals and families to address a range of issues, including violence, conflict, and social inequality. She acts as a bridge between communities and essential services, offering direct support, mediating disputes, and fostering safer, healthier environments. Her role as a community partner and voice ensures that those who are most vulnerable are heard and empowered, and that they have the resources they need to overcome obstacles and thrive. Cynthia’s advocacy extends beyond her professional duties; she is a strong believer in the power of community collaboration and works to build partnerships that support long-term, meaningful change.
Outside of her work, Cynthia values family above all else. She enjoys spending quality time with her loved ones, often embarking on road trips and exploring new destinations together. This personal connection to family and the joy she finds in nurturing those relationships fuels her passion for advocating on behalf of the youth and families she serves. Cynthia’s commitment to making a difference is not only professional—it’s deeply personal, grounded in her love for her own family and her drive to create brighter futures for all families in her community.
