Dina has always been a champion for clear communication with a keen understanding that different audiences require different forms of communication.

Throughout her long career in Digital Delivery Project/Product Management, Global Communications Change Management, Facilitation and Training Management, she managed the implementation for a variety of software products and services. She was always encouraged to research emerging, cutting edge technology, communication strategies, new business processes, MarCom and event management, gaining new personal strengths. Building the user training plans to accompany these tools, she led and facilitated training sessions, incorporating different types of learning plans for different types of learners and neurodiversity. This, combined with a thorough knowledge of Federal, State and local laws, codes and ordinances, it made perfect sense for Dina to be tapped to take on Title II for ADA Accessibility and Title VI for translations for the County of Monterey’s Housing and Community Development website and tools.

“It gives me a great feeling of satisfaction knowing I helped to make someone's job easier, assisted our constituents to get the resources they need, improve business processes, or save someone time and money”.

In her role with the County of Monterey, Dina is also the author of the County’s MCCarWeek.com, which won the 2021 CSAC Challenge award for Innovation - Government Finance, Administration & Technology, and Special Events communications websites. Dina is a member of the Monterey County Advisory Council, representing the management unit’s CEMA members, as well as Co-Chair for the CEMA Membership, Communication, and Liaison committees for Monterey County.
