Diana Ramirez

My name is Diana and I am in the BPA majoring in human services. Today, I proudly stand as the first Latin American woman elected to be VPFA. This milestone isn’t just about me, it’s about amplifying the voices of marginalized communities, this is a win for my whole community!! I am thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to advocate and raise my voice loud and clear for all students at AU.

I also have a part-time job as a community organizer with a nonprofit dedicated to advocating for migrant workers and their families. I have been working with marginalized communities for the past three years and want to further my education to bring awareness to migrant issues within the Latin American community. I want to continue to advocate for equity for all.

At my previous post-secondary, I served for one year as a students’ representative where I learned the invaluable lesson that every single voice deserves to be heard. As a single mother juggling education, my jobs, and household duties, I know the effort we put in to achieve our goals. I look forward to the next two years of being a council member, I will give it my best shot.
