Gabriele has a passion for making the lives of child victims of abuse better. During her time as a student at the University of Utah, Gabi had the opportunity to intern at the Children’s Justice Center of Salt Lake County, where she learned about the needs of the children and families served by the CJC, and the legal processes needed to initiate hope, healing and justice for child victims of crime.

As a college graduate, Gabi now joins the Friends Nonprofit team as Executive Assistant and Community Coordinator working with Executive Director, Angela Martindale while serving the external individuals and organizations partnering with the Friends to help turn trauma into resilience.
