I am a first-generation college student from Calexico, California, studying Construction Management at California State University, Chico. Growing up helping in my family’s lawn service business taught me the value of hard work, responsibility, and teamwork. I am passionate about construction, leadership, and helping others through organizations like DBIA and Latinos in Technical Careers. My goal is to build a successful career in construction while giving back to my community and creating opportunities for others.
