Guadalupe joined Maliasili in September 2022, as a new member of the Finance and Admin team. She was born and raised in Mexico and later on life, she moved to the United States. Guadalupe recognizes the power of numbers and believes that no one succeeds alone. Guadalupe fell into number-crunching naturally when she was about 10 years old, not able to become a math teacher, she pursued a business administration education. Drawing on two decades of non-profit financial, accounting, and administration experience, she joins the Maliasili team to support the Maliasili’s financial operations and administration, including accounting and bookkeeping oversight, financial reporting, audit coordination, and fiscal sponsorship. She will ensure our federal and state law compliance and keep our best-in-class financial system humming.
