B.A. in Political Science 

Brownsville, Texas 

2023 Presidential Award Recipient 

“While I was not blessed with an innate ability to embody the Marianist tradition, I opened my heart, soul and mind to those who do. As I worked alongside followers of Mary to facilitate change, I owe my gratitude to the St. Mary’s University community. As the sun sets on my time at St. Mary’s, my life as a public servant has just begun.”
