Meet Our Team
The Heart of Anaya's Village
We proudly call our team and network of supporters Anaya's Village—because it truly takes a village to raise a child and nurture a young person through the journey of college.
Our team is made up of passionate professionals who are dedicated to keeping our scholars on track, inspiring our mentors, and ensuring the growth and strength of our village. Each member plays an essential role in making Anaya's dream into a reality for first-generation, low-income college students.
Meet the people who make it all possible!
