Leticia Casillas Sanchez, MPH, CHES
Founder, COO, Executive Strategy Consultant
Pronouns: she, her, Ella
Leticia Casillas-Sanchez is a strategist, facilitator, and systems leader who describes herself as a social architect. She thrives in spaces where structure does not yet exist, bringing people, ideas, resources, and strategy together to create a clear path forward. She has led complex initiatives, managed significant public and philanthropic investments, built cross-sector partnerships, advanced policy change, and helped organizations move ideas from strategy to implementation.
A Mexican American and daughter of immigrant parents, Leticia was raised in South Los Angeles during a period of violence and community disinvestment. Those experiences shaped her belief that communities hold tremendous knowledge and power and that the people most affected by decisions should have a meaningful role in shaping them. She was the first in her family to earn undergraduate and advanced degrees.
Leticia’s experience spans healthcare, nonprofits, philanthropy, research, public policy, advocacy, and community-based work, giving her a broad perspective on how decisions, resources, and systems affect communities. She is also deeply engaged in civic and community leadership in Pomona.
Outside of work, Leticia is a mom of three, an avid strength trainer, and enjoys spending time with her Husky named “Girl”.
Lucie Leung-Gurung, MHA
Co-Owner, CFO, and Lead Research and Evaluation Consultant
Pronouns: she, her
Lucie Leung-Gurung is a researcher, evaluator, and educator who helps organizations and communities use data to tell their stories. She treats data as a form of listening, designing studies, surveys, and listening processes that keep people’s experiences at the center. She has led community-based research, built bilingual tools for diverse audiences, and turned community insight into reports, maps, and presentations that help organizations move from information to action.
Lucie is a first-generation Chinese immigrant from Ecuador. Fluent in Spanish with conversational Cantonese, she brings cultural and linguistic fluency to evaluation and research. Years of work in behavioral and community health have shaped her belief that data should not flatten people’s lives. The people most affected by a finding should have ownership of it and the power to use it to make change.
She has managed community-based studies, facilitated listening sessions with residents across racial and ethnic communities, led analysis and reporting that elevate community perspective, and taught undergraduate and graduate public health courses.
Lucie holds a Bachelor’s in Biology and a Master’s in Health Administration from the University of La Verne and is pursuing a PhD in Health Promotion Sciences, with a concentration in Biostatistics, at Claremont Graduate University’s School of Community and Global Health.
She is a mom of one and a food lover at heart. She explores other cultures through cooking, and she loves to travel.
