They have been a part of Calvary Chapel San Diego for 10 wonderful years. They have seen the Lord do amazing things in the lives of their family and friends at CCSD. Gabriela received her BA in Social Science and her teaching credential at San Diego State University. Immediately after receiving her credential, the Lord called her to the ministry of teaching in the public schools. After teaching high school for 4 years the Lord called her to take a step of faith to join the teaching staff at CCA. Gabriela’s heart is to minister, pray for, teach, and learn from the students the Lord brings into her life. She is excited to see the Lord work through and grow the church body at CCA. She is looking forward to working with, praying with, and ministering alongside parents, students, and staff.

Her life verse is 2 Corinthians 13:5 "Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourselves.
