Noelia was born and raised in Managua, Nicaragua. She received a degree in Electronic Engineering from the National University of Engineering, but has never worked in that area because she has been involved with customer service in the airline industry.
Prior to joining Global Brigades, she worked 15 years for American Airlines and 1 year for Delta Airlines at the International Airport in Managua. She joined Global Brigades in November of 2013 when Global Brigades started in-house flight booking for volunteers, and has worked as both a Program Associate and on the Travel Team.
Noelia loves the work that all volunteers do through Global Brigades programs to improve other people’s lives.
In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family and swimming.
