I launched the Peafowl Preservation Program at Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs. The city of Las Vegas allowed me to accept and nurture donated peafowl, essentially tripling the population of peafowl in the park while balancing the number of females to males and providing safe nests for sustainability. For my efforts to preserve their historic legacy, I was recognized by Mayor Goodman and Councilwoman Brune as co-Citizen of the Month in July 2024 along with community partner, Jennifer Langford of Gilcrease Nature Sanctuary, with whom I consulted regularly.

Story

I began my career with the city of Las Vegas as a Community Program Technician for the Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs. I gained valuable experience permitting for Special Events held in our city parks. I've assisted our team in producing festivals and other cultural events around town. I've volunteered for our Dia de Los Muertos Festivals, Blue Grass Festival, Pride Parade and Helldorado Days Parade.

​

As the Gate House supervisor for Floyd Lamb Park, I have gained experience in hiring and onboarding as well as experience in leading teams, monitoring progress, developing programs, executing contracts, purchasing supplies and budgeting.

​

As the Facility and Event Coordinator for City Hall, I handle Facility Use Agreements, secure important documents and facilitate the permitting process for external clients. I'm often onsite at event to ensure access to the building and to make sure things go smoothly. I book training rooms, the Now Cafe and Council Chambers for internal departments such as the Clerk's office, Las Vegas Fire and Rescue, Youth Development and Social Initiatives (YDSI), Community Development, and Neighborhood Services, just to name a few.

​

In my current position, I collaborate with Facility Operations, Business Licensing, Risk Management, our Deputy Marshals, the Communications team and other community stakeholders. I provide strategic advice when planning and marketing events, providing quality customer service and managing inter-professional relationships. I am proficient at adhering to organizational policies, managing application requests, and effectively communicating specifications to ensure compliance when permitting for special events.

​

With tact and professionalism, I strive to collaborate effectively with members of a multidisciplinary team and the chain of command to achieve common goals... our main goal is always to "build Community to make life better."
