Staff Spotlight: Stephanie Guadarrama
This Familiar Faces Friday, we are introducing Stephanie Guadarrama. Stephanie is one of our Kindergarten Countdown Camp Coordinators for the Success By 6 Program (SB6). Learn more about her role, what she likes to do in her free time and how she connects to the programs developed by United Way of Lake County (UWLC)!
When did you start working at UWLC?
I started June 4th.
What made you want to be a part of this organization?
I’ve always heard about United Way and decided to finally do some research as to what they were about and I fell in love. I also really want to become an elementary school teacher and when I saw they were looking for volunteers for the Reading Success Program, I jumped on board as soon as possible.
Which of UWLC’s programs do you connect to most and why?
I really connect with both Reading Success and Kindergarten Countdown Camp because working with children and helping them grow is a true passion of mine.
What is your favorite part of your job here?
Getting to see all my little friends at the elementary schools and my awesome colleagues!
When you are not at work, what kinds of things do you do with your time?
I’m a huge crafter. I literally feel like a 70 year-old woman trapped in a 21 year-old’s body. I love to cross-stitch, crochet, paint and sew.
