hey FAMiglia
I’m Amanda – a behavioral health leader and systems change strategist passionate about reimagining how we show up for communities. With over a decade of experience in program design, youth advocacy, and cross-sector collaboration, I specialize in creating solutions that center the wisdom of those most impacted. My work is rooted in both lived experience and professional expertise, offering an authentic, equity-driven approach to complex challenges. I’ve led statewide initiatives, facilitated community-led partnerships, and built innovative frameworks that uplift BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and other historically excluded voices.
I bring a thoughtful mix of systems thinking, deep relationship-building, and an unwavering commitment to justice. I believe lasting change happens when we honor community power and design with inclusion, not just intention. In my free time you’ll find me enjoying a bowl of pasta, exploring my Swiss Italian roots, hunting for vintage treasures, photographing still-life moments, or curled up with my partner, Michel, and our cat, Hera—because joy and connection fuel this work.
