Jonathan Meagher-Zayas might wear many different hats and be involved in a variety of projects, but one thing is clear: he’s on a mission to make his community a better place. Today, the nonprofit strategist, who identifies as a queer Latino millennial, works as the director of agency advancement at the Villa of Hope, a social services organization.

In terms of his future, his dream role is to obtain leadership positions that embrace his strengths, allow him to be his authentic self, make a positive impact on the community, and advance social justice. With his hands-on work ethic and willingness to go the extra mile, Meagher-Zayas more than proves his spot on this list.
