Karina Bedoya-Ross
HR and Operations Associate
(she, her, ella,)
Karina is our HR and Operations Associate, working on implementing processes and practices within the company using an equity-focused lens. She maintains internal systems while also working on design, research, or event projects. Growing up, she had access to fresh produce and healthy food options and was always fascinated with nature and food; this led Karina to Nuestras Raices. Getting muddy on the farm and singing in Spanish on stage, she was able to incorporate the arts for farm festivals and other projects. From community gardens to farmers markets, Karina knew she wanted to help more by integrating human centered designs, as well as principles of social equity in all aspects of work.
Since Nuestras Raices, she has spent time as a field manager for Grassroots campaigns, an event assistant for MIT Alumni Association, and many other side gigs focused on a more equitable and sustainable future. Karina has been learning about the relationship between plants and people while working as a Landscape Architect and Planner on large development projects. She is determined to always try to find new creative ways to bring the community together with healthier delicious food options.
