On August 10th, 2020, we welcomed Kathya Fuentes to the Express Ventura County team. As our Business Development Manager, she is excited to help more companies and more people build long-lasting work partnerships using everything she's learned to date. Kathya brings with her experience working at a Graphic Production company, in retail, and at another staffing firm that recruited her in 2017. With such a wide range of valuable workforce experience, Kathya is thrilled to find a place where she can fine-tune, polish, and expand her skillsets while also leaving a positive mark on our community.
Born to an immigrant family, being a 1st generation American is the most significant accomplishment and struggle she has ever faced. Kathya found that self-doubt hindered her at first, but as she pressed on, her confidence grew, and she began to make significant strides. Now she knows that she can build the accomplishments from the day before and continue to set higher goals and pursue bigger dreams.
A native to San Fernando Valley, Kathya grew up in Reseda, CA, and then moved to Silverlake, CA. After Kathya's now-husband purchased a condo in Thousand Oaks, the couple moved to Conejo Valley and have been here ever since. After marrying and starting a family, Kathya can't imagine living anywhere else and feels fortunate to work and continue to build new relationships in the same place she calls home.
In her spare time, Kathya finds comfort in non-denominational prayer and her meditation group. She also loves to spend time with her husband and two daughters, shopping for clothes, shoes, and home decor, and watching true life crime shows and movies/documentaries.
