Howdy Friend,

For the folks who I have yet to have the pleasure of meeting, my name is Mathilda Guerrero (yes, just like the movie but my momma added the “h,” silent, in there for extra spice) and I am THRILLED to announce that I am the first ever Digital Manager at Battle Born Progress & Institute for a Progressive Nevada!

In my previous life, I coordinated a nonpartisan voting rights coalition, Let Nevadans Vote, and spearheaded Silver State Voices’ nonpartisan Election Protection program in Clark and Washoe Counties. Before joining the movement, I dedicated myself to public service and empowering young upcoming professionals during my time with the City of Henderson. 

I am an Aquarius, a cat mom of two, and a graduate student at Purdue University - go Boilermakers!

While I don’t have telekensis, I’m committed to fighting for a more representative and liberated world by advocating for my BIPOC siblings. As a Kānaka maoli and Filipina woman, I have seen first-hand the lingering effects of injustice and not holding our elected officials accountable. 

Also, did you know that I’m being honored with the Rising Progressive Leader of the Year Award at Celebrate Progress 2022? I’m so excited to meet you there and celebrate some of the raddest leaders in the Silver State! I’ll bring the vibes but you have to buy your ticket! 

Celebrate Progress is only a few days away, Friend! Can I count on meeting you on September 7th?

A hui ho,
