I was born and raised in Alamosa, CO, am a fluent Spanish speaker, and have also worked in banking for 11 years. I love working alongside our amazing team who's vision and passion aligns with mine. Being a part of this team has allowed me to make an impact in our rural communities and to see small businesses thrive by offering education, resources, grants, and lending opportunities to those in our communities that are underrepresented.

 

Outside of my career, I enjoy spending time with my son and enjoy helping my family with our own small businesses and being 

able to offer our community products like locally roasted green chili, traditional Mexican food, and long-distance trucking transportation.

 

I want to give a huge thank you to all the people who support and partner with FSWCF. Together we can keep leaving our mark in the world of small business lending and education. 

 

Thank you for reading and sharing this month's newsletter!

 

Sincerely, 

 

Lending Specialist
