💜 Women of ALPFA: Stronger Together 💜

Success is not a solo journey.

Join us for an empowering evening dedicated to the strength and impact of women supporting women — one of the many ways ALPFA membership puts you in the room with leaders who are actively investing in your growth.

✨ Hear real stories from an engaging panel of leaders on their career journeys, leadership lessons, and why collaboration beats competition
✨ Connect during interactive mentoring sessions with panelists and accomplished leaders
✨ Walk away with practical advice, real career insight, and a stronger network

This is what ALPFA membership looks like in action — women showing up for women, all year long.

ALPFA ALPFA OU | Association of Latino Professionals for America

From the entire ALPFA Atlanta board we want to thank everyone who came to for our Meet the Board event 💡 🚀

Stay tuned for the announcement of our next event in June 👀

✨ Meet Your Board: Jennifer Mina Valencia | Director of Student Affairs ✨

Some people find their purpose. Jennifer built hers — brick by brick 🌍

A first-generation immigrant from Cali, Colombia 🇨🇴 and first-generation college graduate, Jennifer knows what it feels like to navigate spaces that weren’t always designed with you in mind. That experience didn’t slow her down — it became her superpower and her calling.

Today, Jennifer serves as the Economic Development Manager for the , where she leads bilingual and multicultural outreach, champions business growth, and makes sure diverse communities have a seat at the table. Before that, she spent years at Emory University () managing 20+ international alumni networks and building cross-cultural bridges across the globe. She is also the founder of Women of Excellence International .inter), a nonprofit empowering women and girls in ministry and leadership. With degrees from Emory University and Johns Hopkins — Jennifer is still just getting started. 💪🏽

Off the clock, you’ll find her behind a camera lens 📸, planning her next international adventure ✈️ (yes, she visits a new country every year), or grounded in faith through her church community. A woman of depth, creativity, and purpose.

💛 “I want to be a door opener for others — helping create pathways so they can grow, succeed, and reach their full potential.”

ALPFA Atlanta’s student community just got a powerful advocate in their corner. We couldn’t be more excited. 🙌🏽

✨ Board Introduction: Jose Garcia | EVP Finance (Treasurer) ✨

From the streets of Los Ángeles to the halls of Georgia State () — Jose brings a decade of accounting expertise and a whole lot of corazón to the ALPFA Atlanta board. 🌟

By day, Jose is an Accountant at Cisco Systems, where he works in acquisition accounting — the kind of detail-oriented, high-stakes work that requires precision, trust, and a sharp financial mind. As our EVP Finance & Treasurer, he’s channeling that same energy into building a stronger, more transparent financial foundation for our chapter 💪

But what makes Jose’s story resonate goes beyond the numbers. A proud Latino and GSU alum 🐾, Jose has always felt the pull to give back — to be part of something larger than himself and to help the next generation of Latino professionals find their footing. That’s exactly what brought him to the ALPFA Atlanta board.

💙 “I wish to help ALPFA continue growing and transforming our Latino professionals... through transparency and sustainability.”

We’re thrilled to welcome Jose to the ALPFAmilia and can’t wait to see the impact he’ll help us make this season.
