I am passionate about empowering Hispanic students in STEM and ensuring that they have access to the resources, mentorship, and professional opportunities needed to succeed. Through my leadership in SHPE at the University of Utah as President and my role as Vice Regional Student Representative (RSR), I have seen firsthand the impact that strong leadership and strategic initiatives can have on a chapter’s growth and success. I aim to further strengthen SHPE’s regional and national networks, enhance collaboration between student and professional chapters, and create more structured pipelines for Hispanic students to access internships and full-time job opportunities. I also want to improve communication within SHPE leadership to ensure that every chapter, regardless of size, has the tools and guidance they need to thrive.
