MARTINA GUZMÁN directs special marketing and public/media relations projects for our clients. For the past eight years, she has specialized in delivering strategic messaging to Latino communities, as well as building relationships between them and nonprofit organizations, other minority groups, and the Democratic Party. Skilled at event planning, fundraising, PR/marketing and branding, she has applied her corporate experience to develop exciting programs for volunteer coordination, voter targeting, and GOTV activities.

In 2004 she served as the first-ever Director of Hispanic Outreach for the North Carolina Democratic Party Coordinated Campaign, where she created inroads into nascent Latino communities. Prior to that, she managed the campaign for Michigan State Representative Steve Tobocman and worked as an event coordinator for the Gore-Lieberman campaign.

In Detroit, she served on the Board of Directors for the Mexicantown Community Development Corporation as well as the Detroit ACLU, where in the aftermath of 9/11 she spearheaded informational events in local Arab-American neighborhoods. Martina also has considerable international experience, having performed fundraising research for the Aspen Institute in Berlin—where she also organized various campaign events and GOTV efforts for Americans overseas— as well as humanitarian fact-finding with the Catholic Church in Haiti.

In 2001, Martina received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications from Madonna University in Detroit, Michigan.
