Nancy Martinez
Meet the Founders
Emmanuel, Jose, and Nancy founded Debrief in 2021 in response to the lack of meaningful community engagement they witnessed in their own neighborhoods.
As lifelong residents of South and West Modesto, they created Debrief with a mission to serve communities like theirs: underrepresented, underserved, and often marginalized. Recognizing how communities are too often reduced to data points, metrics, and dollar signs, Debrief was born to shift that narrative. By telling the stories behind the numbers and equipping organizations with the insights they need to truly understand and meet the real needs of the communities they aim to serve.
