Jessica Covarrubias

Membership coordinator

I am: 24

I’m a young professional at: The University of California- Riverside as an Undergraduate Business Administration Major concentrating in Management

I am a happy resident in the City of: Moreno Valley 

My career goals are to: To complete my B.S. in Business Administration and begin my MBA in Fall 2026  

My professional motto is: Work Hard Play Hard & Leadership is about action, not position

My advice to other Young Pros is: Attack every opportunity! Say yes even if it scares you! Growth happens outside of your comfort zone. 

When I’m not working or volunteering, you can find me: You can find me hiking, reading a book at a random park, or working out. 

I joined PICK because: I wanted to grow as a young professional and learn how to confidently navigate the networking scene. 

PICK is awesome because: It connects you with other amazing professionals in the area without the pressure of not knowing where to start. 

I maximize my PICK membership by: By attending as many events as possible and inviting friends who also strive to grow as professionals. 

The issues in Riverside that I care about most are: Supporting young professionals who struggle to navigate life after undergrad and helping them find meaningful ways to get involved in their community with other local leaders.
