Meet Our Career Pathways Team
Jackie Garcia
Career Pathways Manager
Jackie has spent many years helping her community in many ways, especially the Latino community in Sonoma County. She helped non-English speaking parents and students learn about all the opportunities that the schools have to offer while also providing tutoring services to the students in need. While attending college she worked with the Reintegration Program, where she was coached on how to help individuals apply for jobs and help guide them through career exploration. Jackie was a first-generation college student who received her Bachelor of Arts in Political Science.
Rebeca Gutierrez
Marin Career Pathways Coordinator
Rebeca joined the CCNB Career Pathways team in 2026. She has a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in Spanish. She is fluent in both English and Spanish, and she is eager to assist young adults in the community in gaining the skills necessary to succeed in their careers and in life. Rebeca has helped in schools in the Sonoma, Petaluma, and the Novato districts, and has guided community members, especially the underrepresented communities, through government processes such as getting necessary assistance with housing or medical insurance, and driver licenses or identifications. Rebeca is empathetic and understands that adversities may complicate an individual’s success, but with resources and guidance, they will have the essential tools to move past their adversities and increase their chances of success.
Fabian Romo Macias
Sonoma Career Pathways Coordinator
Fabian joined CCNB in 2025, moving over from the education program to more directly help corpsmembers overcome barriers and lead successful and independent lives. Growing up in a predominantly Spanish-speaking household, Fabian knows the struggles when it comes to getting an education and living in a country where you don’t speak the native language. Fabian has a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in Spanish, as well as years of community aid work with the City of Petaluma and the Petaluma Wildlife Museum. He worked with CCNB’s companion program John Muir Charter School as an ESL instructor and teaching aid before transitioning to CCNB’s career pathway team.
