Hello! My name is Valeria G. Padilla. I am majoring in Criminal Justice with a minor in Psychology. When I first heard about this SaLT program, I became interested in the work that is done with much effort, teamwork, and dedication. Forming part of this SaLT program has allowed me the opportunity to assist and contribute towards the efforts of improving education. This work is an important part of my life and weekly activities since it involves the future of education and students. Working together with faculty and students that form part of this Students as Learners and Teachers at a Hispanic Serving Institution has allowed me the opportunity to learn and experience valuable lessons, skills, and moments. Supporting the efforts of faculty and student partners to transform education into a more inclusive, diverse, and equity based community has been a great experience. I hope that my collaboration with faculty and other student partners brings a positive change to education and that student's voices continue to be heard and considered.
