Letter from the ULAA President
Dear UCLA Latino Alumni Association (ULAA) Community,
I write with great excitement and gratitude as the incoming President of the UCLA Latino Alumni Association. I would first like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to our immediate past president, Cesar Pacheco, and the entire board for their dedication, leadership, and many accomplishments over the past year. I also want to recognize and honor all of the leaders who have served ULAA since its founding in 1989. Their commitment and vision have helped build the strong foundation upon which we continue to grow and serve the Latino Bruin community today.
As a first-generation college student and proud two-time UCLA graduate, I am deeply honored to serve this incredible community. UCLA has profoundly shaped my life. It is where I earned my degrees, met my partner, and developed the values and experiences that continue to guide me personally and professionally. Like many of you, UCLA will always hold a special place…
