Before joining the athletics staff full time, Belmares interned in the UTRGV Dean of Students Office, where she supported Title IX case preparation and delivered presentations on university policies and student resources to audiences of more than 300 people.
Belmares previously worked as a nutrition assistant at Doctors Hospital at Renaissance, where she coordinated communication among dietitians, medical departments and management while maintaining patient documentation in compliance with privacy and safety standards. She also completed a summer internship with IDEA Public Schools in Weslaco, where she redesigned student support workshops and developed facilitator guides and instructional materials.
A UTRGV graduate, Belmares earned a bachelor's degree in social work in May 2025.
