Jay Quijada Trost

As a seasoned culinary expert with six years of experience, Jay joined Wolf Connection in 2021 to provide nourishing meals to youth program participants. Her innate nurturing nature guided her to this role and fueled her passion for service. After having a daughter in 2022, she felt inspired to pivot her career away from the culinary world and into an administrative career that allows her to support the organization’s mission while balancing a new chapter of motherhood. Jay received her Bachelor’s Degree from Northern Arizona University in University Studies and is excited to devote her time and skills to this role and make a positive impact on the community. She sees this as an opportunity to grow and develop, while fulfilling her purpose of making a difference in the world her daughter will grow up in.

“My daughter is my lifeline. Exploring the beauty of the world alongside her is one of my greatest joys, and I will cherish every moment we spend together.” – J
