A Future Rooted in Heart
Reflecting on my first 150 days as president of Stanislaus State, I am deeply grateful and honored to serve this exceptional institution. From the moment I first stepped onto campus, I felt a sense of “coming home,” a sentiment reinforced by the warm welcome Enrique and I and our family have received from the Stan State community and the Central Valley. This shared spirit of collaboration and mutual support exemplifies the unity and care that makes Stan State so special.
