Gabriela Nguena Jones

CEO I Founder

Gabriela Nguena Jones is the CEO and Founder of Teens Tutor Teens. She works with at-risked and impoverished youth to regain the skills and confidence to excel in the classroom. Gabriela believes that the face of the job industry is changing to be a more competitive environment requiring advanced degrees, prior experience, and connections to succeed. This is why she has garnered a passion to aid youth in obtaining a strong educational background to give them a chance to enter that competitive market as well. Gabriela has been awarded the Guide Star Gold rating as well as achieved Global Giving Partner Status. Her experience in managing non-profits comes from her being the youngest inducted member for Global Giving’s Leadership Council at the age of 17. Gabriela, an Ingram Scholar at Vanderbilt, hopes to continue to bring education to impoverished communities.
