Claudia and her family have been involved with YFC since 2016, first in Bolivia and later in Canada. After moving to Canada in 2021, she joined the YFC Moncton staff in 2023 as a Youth Program coordinator.

A dentist by profession, Claudia is passionate about caring for people, sharing the love of Jesus, and helping young people discover their God-given purpose and potential. At YFC Moncton, she works alongside the Director to develop RISE, a sports programs for children and youth, helping build the new Moncton chapter from the ground up. She also recruits, trains, and supervises volunteers while creating safe spaces where youth can build relationships, grow in faith, and belong.

Claudia supports newcomer youth and families by facilitating workshops for church leaders, conferences and youth-serving organizations. These workshops raise awareness about the experiences of immigrant youth, known as Third Culture Kids, and equip leaders to provide more meaningful support to them. She is also part of YFC National’s cultural diversity team, The Bridge, a group of nine staff members from diverse ethnic and ministry backgrounds working to shape a YFC ministry that reflects and engages Canada’s multicultural landscape.

Claudia believes that investing in young people is an investment in the future. Her dream is to see a generation passionate about Jesus and empowered to reflect His love in their families, churches, and communities.
