Stephanie Luna-Lopez

Operations Specialist

Girls Leadership Academy Meetup (GLAM)

I work on organizing the events, preparing materials for sessions, and reviewing feedback to improve future events!

I love seeing the vision boards and business pitches! It feels like a sweet treat for all of the work that goes into each event when I get to see all of your creativity in practice.

Communication is key! I check in with my team every day and create a to-do list to make sure I am meeting deadlines. I work a lot with surveys and spreadsheets to prepare and evaluate events. I also communicate with parents/guardians, as well as the sponsors that we partner with to make sure GLAM events are successful.

I actually began as a GLAM Mentor when I was in college and then I volunteered to interviews for GLAM's YouTube channel. Now I work behind the scenes to put on amazing events as an official member of the GLAM team!

I am continuing my education and earning a Doctorate in School Organization and Educational Policy from UC Davis. I love learning new things and growing my skill sets!

I enjoy playing tennis, cooking, and catching up with friends! My favorite dish to make is ceviche.

Every "no," closed door, or rejection is not a failure, just a redirection. Keep moving forward!
