Devon Naples

Devon was born and raised in Dallas, made Colorado home for 12 years and has now settled in Albuquerque, New Mexico with her husband Jason and two dogs. She began her nonprofit career working in harm reduction, conducting on-the-ground outreach for a syringe access program in Denver. She spent 4 years managing operations and fundraising for a statewide Wilderness nonprofit in New Mexico, the birthplace of Wilderness. Now in her role with Empower, she strives to contribute to the progressive movement more broadly by supporting the fundraising operations of an organization that is changing the way the Left builds community. When she’s not typing, you might catch Devon in New Mexico’s mountains or kayaking one of the west’s magnificent rivers.
