EXPERIENCE

Erika is a U.S. Army National Guard veteran. During her time in the Army National Guard, she was responsible for daily administrative tasks, including creating and updating reports, scheduling, and maintaining records and training calendars. Additionally, she provided input for the Foreign Security Force, Coalition Force, Host Nation Force training, and readiness assessments. Erika also ensured team members were administratively ready to deploy, including such documents as wills, emergency notifications, powers of attorney, and more. She also maintained personnel trackers for soldiers abroad to ensure 100 percent accountability for the Unit and State in case of national emergencies or unscheduled deployments.


Growing up, Erika had many friends in the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. She witnessed their struggles firsthand and saw how difficult it can be to communicate with others. As a result, Erika decided to take ASL classes and Deaf history classes in college to learn more about the culture, history, and struggles of this community. Now, Erika is proficient in American Sign Language and interprets as needed to alleviate communication barriers and ensure both parties are fully understood. 


Erika is a native Spanish speaker and also took Spanish throughout her formal education, minoring in Spanish in college. Erika immersed herself in Spanish culture during her Ballet Folklorico and Aztec dancing. Through dancing, she traveled and performed across the U.S., sharing her culture with people. For a decade, she performed at Fiesta Mexicana and Indian Summer. 


Erika is working towards her degree in Health/Health Care Administration/Management.
