Douglas Pileri, chairman of the Board of Directors of Music for All, has announced that Andeliz Castillo has been elected to the organization’s Board of Directors. Castillo is currently the President of Neviz Strategies LLC, a professional consulting firm offering services in personnel development/coaching, business operations support, and minority engagement and communications.
“Our CEO Jeremy Earnhart has a strong and capable team of operating managers and volunteers,” Pileri said, “and the work they’re doing is better than it’s ever been. The Board’s role is to attract people with a depth of talent and a diversity of experience to complement our operating team––and help us all think more broadly and lead more creatively. Andeliz will bring those strengths to our Board.”
Castillo has had extensive experience in the U.S. government––and beyond. Her responsibilities have included leading community engagement efforts on behalf of the Vice President’s office and working with the Western Hemisphere national security team on issues to advance democracy and human rights throughout the region. She was nominated to serve as the U.S. Alternate Executive Director for the Inter-American Development Bank, helping to combat human trafficking in Latin America and facilitating the election of the first American to lead the IDB Group as President. In the private sector, Castillo served as Chief Operating Officer of The Libre Initiative and The Libre Institute–– strong, value-based organizations in Freedom Partners, one of the country’s most successful policy-influencing initiatives.
