Bio
Mercedes Gomez
Nashla is an exceptional individual who demonstrated great sensitivity to organizational needs, as well as creativity in solving problems. She is perceptive, emphatic, and committed to every task she takes on. In the years of work with the Queens Business Outreach Center, I have never encountered a more capable or hard-working individual. Nashla is a committed and creative public servant, and I recommend her highly indeed.
Chrissy Fiorentini
It has been a pleasure to work with Nashla on the Health and Social Services team at the Independent Budget Office (IBO), a small NYC government agency. She is a self-starter who frequently comes up with interesting and innovative ideas for research projects. Nashla is also a thoughtful and dedicated colleague, always ready to help a teammate with her extensive knowledge of ArcGIS and the New York City budget. Collaborating with Nashla on several research projects has been one of the highlights of my time at IBO.
