Most notably, Catrina served on the Board of Managers for two charter schools, and she led the Board for two years as the Board Chair.

Her experience in working with the youth combined with her financial and management

Growing up with a father who is a carpenter and working in the construction industry, Catrina has an appreciation for the trade industry and understands just how important trade jobs are for individual communities and societies as a whole. Young adults have the intelligence, the attention to detail, and excellent analytical and leadership skills that are needed for the various trades. Many times, they just need assistance with applying those skills in a way to have a positive impact on the economy and their future. The Joe A. Sanders Vo-Tech Fund, Inc. will provide, for many youth, an opportunity and a starting point on a pathway that will have endless opportunities.
