Hello! I’m Juliet Quebatay.

Let's work together!

With a strong background in program management, outreach, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), I am passionate about designing and executing impactful initiatives that drive engagement and create opportunities for underrepresented communities.

 

I bring extensive experience in community engagement, strategic planning, program scaling, and team leadership. My ability to develop and execute high-impact programs stems from a strong foundation in communication, data-driven decision-making, and DEI-focused initiatives.

 

Key Skills: Program Management | Outreach Strategy | DEI Development | Community Engagement | Team Leadership | Stakeholder Relations | Data Assessment | Strategic Planning

 

I am always looking to connect with like-minded professionals and organizations working toward equitable access to education and community-driven initiatives. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to collaborate!

“Change is the end result of all true learning. Change involves three things: First, a dissatisfaction with self - a felt void or need; second, a decision to change to fill the void or need; and third, a conscious dedication to the process of growth and change - the willful act of making the change, doing something.” - Dr. Leo Buscaglia
