Kanika is our newest team member. She volunteered with WSP for six months before joining us full-time in 2022 as a Program Manager. What resonated with her was the simplicity of the idea, of a mother reading to her child and the compounding impact it can have on the child, the mother, and their family.
Our Team
STAFF:
Kanika Kumar
Programs Manager
Ismael Rangel
Technology Coordinator
Ismael comes to WSP with over 30 years of experience in IT support and database management. While IT is his focus with WSP his previous experiences include working as a probation officer with the Juvenile court and as a case manager with Big Brothers Big Sisters. This gives him a unique perspective on the impact separation of parents from children can have. He hopes to add his IT skills in furthering WSP's mission to serve mom's and their children.
Sun Connor
Operations Manager
Sun has been with Women’s Storybook Project since 2013. She came on board as a part-time assistant and is knowledgeable in all things Storybook. She made the transition to Operations Manager and oversees finance, communications and IT.
Jill Gonzalez
Executive Director
Jill joined Women’s Storybook Project in September of 2018. She was strongly attracted to the mission of WSP because she believes in the power of a mother’s voice and the ability of a good book to help connect families.
