Southeast Region President

oxyGEN Responsibilities:

As the Southeast Region President, I steer the ship of day-to-day operations, ensuring our chapter thrives as a vibrant hub for AT&T's young professionals. At the local level, I shape our strategic direction for our chapter, strive to foster a dynamic community, and work to amplify our brand's presence here at our company's headquarters. From orchestrating engaging events that spark innovation and connection among members, to leading fundraising initiatives for our scholarship fund, I do my best to steer the rest of the Atlanta leadership team in the right direction. One of my favorite parts of my role is overseeing the rest of the Atlanta local board and meeting new people within and outside of the company. 

Day-to-Day: Lead Marketing Manager, AT&T Prepaid Portfolio 

Vardan here. Pronounced like garden but with a v. I am a lead marketing manager at Cricket Wireless and my primary responsibility is the merchandising marketing budget and communication. Throughout my almost 15-year career I have held roles and excelled in inventory management, retail, quality management, sales operations, business management and now marketing. I have a Masters degree from Texas A&M University in Ag Economics and have graduated from AT&T management development program (MDP) in 2023. I am passionate about new technology, efficiency and leadership.    

I am married to my wonderful wife Leticia and we have two amazing kids: Iza and Alex. We rescued our boxer mix pup Gigi 3 years ago and she’s a delight. We are all soccer lovers and spend quite a bit of time on soccer fields. I speak 3 languages and enjoy learning all I can about AI. My goal is to lead AI deployment and utilization within organizations.

OXYGEN Responsibilities: Social Media Director As the social media director for Southeast, I manage our chapter's internal and external social media channels. I plan, create, and post engaging content to our channels on a regular basis to keep members informed of chapter news and upcoming events at the local and national level. As required, I may also draft copy/captions, create graphics, or photograph events as an extension of my content creation responsibilities. Post-event, I ensure event attendees "follow" us to promote social media page growth, and I also ensure any questions or comments that we receive through our channels are answered in a timely manner.

Day-to-Day: Lead Tech Vendor Manager 

My name is Giselle Brizuela, and I am based in Atlanta, GA. I joined AT&T in 2024 and work as a Lead Tech Vendor Manager in the Technology Services business unit, supporting our strategic vendors within IT infrastructure services. I manage our vendors and contracts by ensuring vendor compliance, service level adherence, and completion of contract deliverables, as well as by working alongside our Business, Global Supply Chain, and Legal teams on required contract negotiation activities and other sourcing events. I am passionate about education and mentorship, and for the last 5 years I have volunteered with my alma mater’s mentorship program to mentor undergrad students seeking guidance with interview skills, job search, networking, resume writing, professional goal setting, and more.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, playing with my black lab, reading, traveling, hiking, concerts & musicals, cooking, watching movies, and gardening.
