TESTIMONIALS
"From the outset, Rosanna was thoughtful in the way she approached working with our Board. She presented the information in a way that provided scaffolding, working toward the more difficult and complex conversations. This allowed directors to build trust and be better prepared to openly discuss challenging topics. Additionally, she wove in personal experiences as a first generation Latina woman, bringing a first person reality to conceptual discussions. We would love to find a way to work with her again and highly recommend her to others."

Non-profit client
"Rosanna led our sessions from a place of kindness and understanding. Some members of our group were wary and skeptical about DEI education, and expected to feel "blamed" or "shamed." Rosanna's steady and gentle approach assured even the least aware among us to be open and accepting of the material. Thank you!"
