DEVELOPMENT AND MARKETING MANAGER (She/Her/Hers)

Vanessa Chacon, a proud Southern California native, holds an MBA in Business Marketing and a BA in Business Administration from Cal State Fullerton, earning her degrees in 2019 and 2017, respectively. She spent three years as a Marketing Director at an insurance agency before transitioning to the nonprofit sector in 2019 as a Development Coordinator at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum’s Los Angeles office. Passionate about women's rights and socio-economic justice, Vanessa is dedicated to making a positive impact through her work.

Outside of work, Vanessa enjoys listening to true crime podcasts, jamming to her Spotify daylist playlist, and spending quality time with her family—especially her two nieces and nephew. She’s also a devoted cat mom to Mabel and Ralphie, who keep her on her toes. To unwind, she indulges in reality shows, social media scrolling, and planning her next getaway. Nothing speaks to her soul more than chips, guac, and a perfectly mixed margarita!
