Legislative Director - Gamiel Ortigoza
Hello everyone! My name is Gamiel Ortigoza (he/him/his) and I am your 2022-2023 Legislative Director! I'm a Track 2 Junior with a minor in Political Science and I'm so excited to represent YOU in this organization. Alongside my position on SNA's Board of Directors, I am also the Treasurer for Andrés Bonifacio Samahan and the Vice President of Communications for the College of Health and Human Services.
I was born and raised in Elk Grove, CA and I absolutely love being outdoors and will always be down to do things that get me outside -- hiking, going to the beach, you name it. When I have nothing to do, I really love baking and creating things from scratch with my hands. My biggest weakness would have to be my love for milkshakes, so if you ever wanna make me happy, you know what to get me! If you have any questions about my role or myself, don't hesitate to reach out! Email me at: sdsusnalegislative@gmail.com |
