Founder and Director
Executive Director
Dr. Giovanni is a distinguished Criminal Psychologist and community leader of Italian and Thai ancestry, recognized as the first mixed-heritage leader to represent the Thai community in her region. She bridges Thailand’s rich cultural traditions with the contemporary experiences of Thai Americans, fostering cultural continuity across generations.
As Executive Director of Giovanni Media and a former Commissioner on the Clark County AAPI Committee—a position she held during her full term from 2021 to 2023—Dr. Giovanni has established herself as a prominent voice in Asian American advocacy. She also serves as Cultural Ambassador for the CNY in the Desert Non-Profit Organization and Executive Sponsor of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance, while maintaining active involvement in Muay Thai productions that celebrate traditional martial arts and Thai cultural heritage.
Dr. Giovanni’s deep community roots stem from her family’s enduring legacy in Thai American media. Her mother, the founder and Editor-in-Chief of Las Vegas News—Nevada’s oldest and largest Thai newspaper since 1999—paved the way for generational leadership in cultural journalism and community representation.
Widely recognized for her principled leadership and steadfast advocacy, Dr. Giovanni serves as a trusted and vital liaison between Asian immigrant communities and government institutions, fostering meaningful communication and mutual understanding across cultural boundaries. Her humanitarian initiatives and sponsorship of cultural programs reflect a lifelong dedication to community empowerment and the preservation of cultural heritage.
Dr. Giovanni is respected for her nurturing yet results-driven leadership style and her exceptional ability to cultivate and sustain strategic partnerships with elected officials, government agencies, and multicultural leaders across the nation. Through public forums, community events, and interagency collaboration, she has strengthened civic engagement and advanced cohesive community relations.
