It is with SO much excitement that we introduce you to our newest Regional Coordinator, Ms. Katrina!
If you have followed us for any amount of time, you may feel like you recognize her and you wouldn’t be wrong. Katrina has played a major role from the beginning of MARKED, mainly behind the scenes, in addition to her ongoing partnership through her company B.E.S.T Academy. Her along with her husband Israel have been on our board both in the US and Mexico and have played vital rolls from the beginning. It was their house the Miller’s moved into when first arriving to Mexico and it was always us sitting around their dining table that we would dream up crazy ideas of how we could make this whole thing possible. They have been our greatest confidants and friends. Our translators, advocates, connecters, prayer partners and more. Really the list continues of what this family has done for us over the years. They are the definition of love, sacrifice and family.
As of June 1st, Katrina took an official role with us as our regional coordinator. She will be partnering with the vision to dream and expand MARKED by means of oversight, and high level management locally in Mexico. Her role of dreaming and planning with us won’t change but practically speaking, she will be using her skill sets to monitor, manage and review programs, procedures as well as registries of local staff and the organization at large. Katrina will be responsible to bring perspective, cultural references that are relevant to the communities in which we work, also bringing proposals and projects to the table and seeing that they are executed by the correct department, center and/or base of the MARKED team at large. She will play a large role in cultivating and carrying out MARKED culture to our staff and volunteers so that it can be replicated in every area in which we work. Lastly Katrina will help us in the areas of managing government relationship, correspondence and appointments as part of her role here at MARKED.
We cannot express our gratitude enough to each of you who make hiring positions like hers possible. Having Katrina on our team not only empowers growth, but long term sustainability and transformation at large.
Please help me officially welcome Katrina to the MARKED family.
