Ana Lupita Ramírez

Lupita has a degree in Accounting from the Autonomous University of Baja California. She loves working with numbers and has specialized in Civil Society Organizations (CSOs). She is currently a part of the Sonoran Institute team, where she works as Administrative Accounting Coordinator.

One of the most important activities she carries out at Sonoran Institute is to support the preparation of budgets and preparing new project proposals, coordinating financials, taking budgetary control of each project and area once they are authorized. This is a complex task given that they are a binational CSO (Mexico-USA), and they work with both fiscal years; following the fiscal and accounting rules of both countries. At the beginning of her career Lupita worked in private sector companies, until she worked for the first time in a CSO, Sol del Niño Museum, where she worked for just over 9 years. From there, she knew the satisfaction that her skills and experience can contribute to achieving a common good and she knew that she wanted to continue her career in civil society institutions. Those of them who have worked in an organization of this type, know that it is essential to be efficient with the resources that are normally scarce and the activities to be carried out are many, so she manages the areas of accounting, payroll, purchasing, auditing, projects and administration.
