Biography

Moises supports Green Foothills’ development, marketing, and program efforts through the management, reporting, and security of the organization’s CRM system. As Development and Marketing Associate Manager, he is responsible for executing CRM-related activities and supporting the organization’s data strategy by ensuring accurate, secure, and actionable data.

Before joining Green Foothills in April 2019, Moises worked for the Pacific Coast Farmers’ Market Association (PCFMA), where he managed farmers’ markets and gained hands-on experience with sustainable agriculture, local food systems, and supporting small-scale local farmers. As part of that work, he launched grassroots outreach campaigns for new and existing markets in San Jose. He continues to work part time with PCFMA.

Moises grew up in South San Jose along Coyote Creek, and the conservation of Coyote Valley and the surrounding foothills resonates deeply with him. In his spare time, he enjoys exploring Bay Area hiking and biking trails, dabbling in woodworking, and watching films as a devoted cinephile. He has also recently taken up fantasy football—earning second place in his very first season in 2025.
