She has a Master of Science in Microbiology from Rutgers University/UMDNJ Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, and is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP). Claudia has devoted much time and talent to the marketing and development efforts at Alborada, in her current service as Chair of the Marketing Committee, and previous membership on the Development Committee and Board of Trustees. Claudia has helped the company standardize and increase its marketing and branding efforts, and broadened the company's funding base by obtaining new sponsors and grants. Devotion to the Alborada mission is a family affair, with Claudia's husband Robert Matland assisting our Set Designer Charles Seal with many backstage activities. Claudia is an audience pleasing soloist in the company, as well as dancing in some ensemble works, and she also teaches Alborada adult student flamenco classes in Metuchen and assists Eva Lucena train the company apprentices.
