Additional Biographical Information:
More than half of my career has been spent working in the fields of advocacy and pastoral work on behalf of Hispanic people. This involved working on behalf of indigent and low-income people in the South Bronx, The Office of Immigrant Services for the Archdiocese of New York, pastoral work in Chicago and for Spanish-speaking men in a state correctional facility near Pittsburgh. I also served on my religious congregation's leadership team for nine years. I am a native of New Mexico.
