Gennieva is the passionate founder of Girasol Nonprofit Organization, created with the mission to support and uplift the neurodiverse community. With an undergraduate in psychology and a minor in special education, Gennieva brings over four years of combined academic, personal, educational and professional experience in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

As a mother of two children on the autism spectrum, she has experienced firsthand the challenges families face—especially within communities where cultural stigmas surrounding behavioral health still persist. Determined to break barriers and build bridges, Gennieva founded Girasol to offer inclusive, family-friendly sensory events, parent support groups, and educational opportunities specifically tailored for minority families.

Her work is driven by empathy, advocacy, and a deep commitment to creating spaces where every individual is celebrated for who they are.
