Meet Sarai, one of our Program Facilitators here at Girls Inc. of the Valley.  She first joined Girls Inc. as an intern and quickly discovered how much she enjoyed being part of the Program team. And when the opportunity came to stay on as a Program Facilitator, she jumped at the chance. Sarai loves getting to know the participants, connecting with her team, and being part of such a welcoming environment.

Sarai previously worked in construction, and she said that it was her time in that career field that taught her the importance of believing in yourself and your abilities, even when others may underestimate you. It’s what makes her passionate about encouraging the next generation of girls to recognize their strengths, trust in themselves, and never shy away from opportunities to lead. And what’s her favorite part about working at Girls Inc. of the Valley? It’s spending time with the youth and getting to know her awesome coworkers.

Outside of work, Sarai has a creative side! She studied masonry in high school, loves comic books and superheroes (especially female superheroes!), and enjoys expressing her personality through fashion.
