My mother was raised in Mexicali Baja California, and my father is from San Luis Potosi. Both are from modest means, but my mother was the first college graduate in her family and became Chief of Dental Surgery at her hospital and my father was an engineer. We are very proud of our cross-border heritage. Texas has been very good to us, and I’d like to share my experiences with young men and women, mentor and guide them, and highlight opportunities that are available to them and help them achieve their personal, academic, and professional goals.
