Veronica Diaz, Southern California Edison

Another exciting opportunity just happened for one of our own HCSB Committee Members, Veronica Diaz! Join me in congratulating Veronica on her new role at Southern California Edison – a founding strategic partner of HCSB – as Energy Efficiency Marketing & Outreach Advisor with SCE’s Customer Programs & Services. In her new role, Veronica “will be the Income Qualified Program (IQP) subject matter expert in coordinating the content, design, compliance, and distribution of customer-facing marketing collateral, including print, website, and social media.” Prior to this position, Veronica served as an Account Manager for the SCE Business Customer Division, responsible for creating clean energy awareness for small business communities, focusing on Hispanic and diverse business associations. In addition to her professional responsibilities, Veronica serves as the Community Outreach Director for SCE’s Business Resource Group, LEAD, a Latino organization positively impacting employee development, advancement, and engagement. HCSB is proud and extremely fortunate that Veronica lends her community-minded spirit and valuable expertise in the energy sector to serve as a Committee Member of the HCSB Green Energy & Sustainability Committee (https://www.hcsb-us.org/green-energy-and-sustainability-committee). Congratulations, Veronica!
