Administrative Team
Rebecca, Executive Director
Our South San Luis Obispo County Club is so fortunate to have supporters from our community. You are making a true difference in the lives of South SLO youth and families who rely on us to provide a safe and fun out-of-school environment - a place where kids can be kids!
We thank you for investing in our community’s youth and supporting our mission of serving youth, especially those who need us most, to help them reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. Again, we greatly appreciate your support. Thanks for helping us help others. |
Jasmine, Resource Development Director
My hobbies include going on adventures with my husband & dog, beach bonfires with friends, going to Disneyland, and trying every art or craft imaginable! My favorite local restaurant is The Green Olive. My favorite drink is a Unicorn Blood Soda at Dutch Bros. The three things I would want with me if I were stranded on an island: my husband, my dog, and a grove of coconut trees. I love BGC South SLO because I get to help our local youth on their journey to a wonderful future!

Mike, Operations Director
Hello, I'm Mike! I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I graduated with a degree in communications at California State University of Northridge. About three years ago, I moved to the Five Cities area and never looked back. Some of my personality traits would be humorous, genuine, kind, and humble. My favorite foods are pizza, BBQ, and sushi. Just typing all of that made my stomach growl! When I'm not working, I enjoy playing video games, traveling to different places, and boxing. I love working for the Boys and Girls club because of our team dynamic in serving youth.

Unit Coordinators
Elizabeth, Fairgrove Unit Coordinator
Hello, I'm Elizabeth. My hobby is celebrating Halloween Daily and also, I love to garden. My favorite local restaurants are Tacos De Acapulco and Sylvester's Burgers. My favorite drink is a caramel latte with 2 extra shots and almond milk or a super cold diet coke. If I was stranded on an island I would want an acoustic guitar, lotion with sunscreen and a supply of various seeds to plant. I love BGC South SLO because I love working with children of all ages and helping serve the community, I grew up in.

Camila, Oceano Unit Coordinator
I am a college student working toward my associate degree in Kinesiology. I enjoy doing outdoor activities like going for a run, going on a hike, going to the beach or sometimes just going on a road trip and enjoying nature, also one of my favorite activities to do is catching the sunset. One of my favorite drinks is iced coffee although I am not a big fan of Starbucks. I think local coffee shops have the best coffee drinks. My favorite food is pasta, fettuccini alfredo is my favorite! I used to watch over my cousin's kids just for fun on my free time, so I thought working for Boys & Girls Clubs of South SLO County my winter break in 2021 would be a great place to be while doing what I like and changing youths' lives. Little did I know, two years later they would change my life!

In college, I trained in Tabala and Violin. I love my family. My friends and family call me a fighter as I am a cancer survivor and that too happened when I moved to U.S. in 2018! I communicate in three languages everyday; English, Gujarati and Hindi. and I understand some more Indian languages.

Hello, my name is Jizelle! Growing up, I moved around a lot which allowed me to experience different cultures and environments. During my childhood, I attended various Boys & Girls Clubs which played a significant role in shaping me into the person I am today.
