Paula Katrina (PK) Drago
2012 CNCS Segal Fellow
Paula Katrina (PK) Drago, is the 2012 CNCS Segal Fellow and currently resides in Brooklyn, NY. She is a Senior Account Executive at Lautman Maska Neill & Company, where she supports direct mail fundraising efforts for nonprofits like Doctors Without Borders, Point Foundation, and United Spinal. PK started her career by serving three consecutive terms with AmeriCorps: two with the National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC) and one with Habitat for Humanity of Washington, D.C. Her service allowed her to master the art of parallel parking a 15-passenger van, accumulate library cards from 5 different states, learn how to build a house, and solidified her dedication to national service. She currently volunteers with the Good Shepherd National Advocacy Center and RISSE—an organization based in her Upstate New York hometown that provides support services to refugees and immigrants.
