Welcome

Please join us for our Summer Forum Series of Guest Speakers

Sunday 8/11/2024 10am "Salt Lake City's West Side: Diversity Is Our Strength"

Speaker: Sen. Luz Robles Escamilla, Utah State Senator, District 10
 

Senator Escamilla has lived the American Dream. Born in Mexico, she moved with her parents to the United States, where she was a high school graduate in San Diego before enrolling at the University of Utah, where she earned her Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Marketing in 2000 and her MPA in 2005. She is married with five children.

Senator Escamilla represents her constituents living in the West Side areas of Salt Lake City. During her 15½ years as a Utah lawmaker, the Senator’s legislative focus has been on socio-economic concerns facing Utah’s working families and quality of life issues: children facing poverty, childcare and healthcare, transportation access, food insecurity, and air quality. Since 2013, Luz serves as Zions Bank’s vice president for its Community Development Group.
