As an alumnus of Radford School, I am honored to give back to an institution of learning that gave me so much. Learning at Radford is holistic, from the tough college preparatory academic curriculum to the many traditions that promote social growth and learning, such as the dining experience, which fosters etiquette, and Senior Dinner, which emphasizes public speaking and gratitude for all Radford School gives. As Secretary for the Board and Chair of the Academic Affairs Committee, I am excited to serve alongside a group of talented and dedicated professionals focused on ensuring Radford's success for generations of students to come.
I graduated Valedictorian of Radford School in 2014 and graduated Magna Cum Laude from St. Edward's University in 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. I previously worked for then State Representative Cesar J. Blanco (now serving as State Senator) in Austin while a student at St. Edward's and after I graduated as his Field Representative, before serving as Director of External and Legislative Affairs for AT&T, I served as Public Policy Analyst for El Paso County Commissioner David Stout. I currently serve on the El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Board and am actively involved with the Borderplex Alliance and the Texas Border Coalition.
My favorite Radford tradition is Senior Dinner. I thoroughly enjoy hearing the seniors thank their teachers and families for all they've done to prepare them to take on their world, as it shows the deep reflection of what their time at Radford has meant. It is equally gratifying and fulfilling to see the teachers and staff be recognized for their efforts over the time they've imparted knowledge to their students.
