Giselle Espinoza-Hernandez for A.S. Director of Communications Hey, Spartans! My name is Giselle Espinoza and I am a junior here at SJSU majoring in communication studies. I was a transfer student from the College of San Mateo, where I spent one year involved in student life and advocacy. I am honored to announce that I am running to be your Associated Students (A.S.) Director of Communications. As I have made a virtual transition from my previous college to San Jose State University, I am looking forward to meeting you all in person and experiencing the beautiful, diverse campus. As a first-generation Latinx student, my experiences growing up in public education have revolved around not having access to many academic resources. Over time, I have learned how to navigate my way through life and school while gaining a passion for helping others through leadership. During my time at the College of San Mateo, I was a Student Senator and the Public Relations Co-Chair and Co-Founder for the Associated Students. I had the opportunity to work with several groups on campus and I also lead a team of creative individuals to help promote all that the Associated Students had to offer. College is filled with so many possibilities for all students, but I understand how difficult it may be to look for them. If elected, I hope to work cross-functionally with groups all over campus to ensure that every student feels supported and motivated throughout their college journeys. I hope you all continue staying safe and don’t forget to vote!
