She has been instrumental to WiS’s benchmarking surveys, nascent speaker bank and WiS’s most ambitious undertaking to date: a mentor/protégé program. In addition, Gomez worked with the steering committee to develop and facilitate WiS events and discussions at a time when the pandemic demanded a pivot to digital programming. Due to her contributions, resourcefulness and can-do spirit in regards to the WiS group, Gomez received OSAC’s 2020 Distinguished Achievement Award.Ī true collaborator, Gomez helps WiS work together with OSAC's other regional and industry-focused membership groups in order to elevate the female presence in key networks and rally broader interest in the WiS program from the wider security community. Her resourcefulness and technical skills were instrumental in developing the group’s communication strategy and platform, including a clearly defined, collegial Google group that has expanded the WiS community. Since its founding in 2017, Gomez has guided the WiS steering committee by creating and developing its foundational documents and defining its mission, objectives and organizational structure. When there are questions about resources or where the program fits within the larger OSAC programmatic framework, I liaise between the steering committee and the OSAC front office to make sure both groups are aligned.”
She explains, “I work directly with our WiS steering committee to brainstorm, discuss and implement our ideas.
As the Program Manager for OSAC’s WiS group - a thriving group with membership of more than 1,000 women and allies - Gomez helps create the annual strategic goals for the program, working with the steering committee weekly to ensure that everyday work can incrementally achieve the group’s big picture goals. Specifically, Gomez oversees portfolios addressing the Europe Regional Committee, West and Central Europe Country Chapter Programs and the Women in Security (WiS) group.
