Who We Are

 Executive Latina Leadership Association (ELLAS)  

 Executive Latina Leadership Association (ELLAS) was established in 2017 by Nora Comstock, Ph.D. and Eyna Canales-Zarate. ELLAS was created for Latinas in executive level positions, or for those preparing for these executive level positions, to get to know each other and share information. The meetings allow for an exchange of information: upcoming job openings, contacts, resume development, salary negotiations and interviewing techniques, career mapping, etc. Professional development seminars provide opportunities for executive Latinas to access professionals in areas that may not be available to them, such as a professional resume, career road mapping, etc. 

DISCLAIMER: All information is private and confidentiality is expected.
