Monica has led GSSEM as its CEO since 2020 and brings 20+ years of experience in nonprofit programming and leadership, as well as an extensive background working with organizations serving young people including Girl Scouts. She has played an instrumental role in expanding GSSEM’s programmatic operations and changing perceptions of what Girl Scouts as an organization can do and be for all members of its community.
