Story joined YouthForce NOLA in 2023 and was promoted to Director of Internships in the spring of 2025. She leads YouthForce NOLA’s signature student-facing program, our summer Internship for public high school seniors. Before leading the Internship team, Story was the Soft Skills Program Manager, coaching and training educators to provide meaningful soft skills education to New Orleans high school students. Story also worked as a Scholar Support Specialist at a public charter school in Baton Rouge, LA, where, over five years, she served as a teacher, interventionist, and a school administrator. These many school-based roles have equipped her with an in-depth understanding of the educational landscape and honed her ability to connect with individuals from various backgrounds, which significantly contributes to her success in her role.

Born and raised in New Orleans, Story is a Cabrini High School alum and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Louisiana State University. After spending nine years in Baton Rouge, she is excited to be back home serving educators and students in her native city.
