Trinajae began her government career in 2014 under the Executive Direction of former Governor Eddie Baza Calvo and Lt. Gov. Ray Tenorio. She was scouted at the University and hired right before receiving her undergraduate degree. She worked under Lt. Gov. Ray Tenorio as a Grant Specialist and later as his Senior Grant Specialist. She has produced writeups for several federal grants that have been awarded. Prior to the transition of the new administration, Trinajae was transferred the Public Safety division, under the office of Lt. Gov. Ray Tenorio. She continued her tenure throughout the conclusion of the Calvo Tenorio administration and wrote grants for public safety agencies. Because of her grant write-ups, the Guam Police Department, the Neighborhood Watch Program, the Department of Corrections (Corrections Masterplan and Redevelopment Plan) and the Guam Fire Department (boat ramp construction) were recipients of grant funding.

She now serves at the pleasure of Senator James “Jim” C. Moylan as his office manager and continues to dedicate her time to public service. In her current capacity, Trinajae assists in coordinating events, policy strategy, and acts as a liaison between local leadership and constituents.

She continues to be an active member of the GOP, Republican Party of Guam, her village Neighborhood Watch Program and continues to offer her experience in grant writing with any government entities needing assistance.

In her free time, Trinajae enjoys spending her weekends off at the beach with her two children, friends and families. She also enjoys grilling, playing football and baseball.
