Welcome, Rodrigo!

We are excited to welcome Rodrigo to the FuturesNW team!

Rodrigo is currently in his third year at Western Washington University, where he studies Management Information Systems. Last year, he served in an AmeriCorps position to help tackle local food insecurity and other community needs. He spearheaded many projects, participated in community events, and even developed a fundraiser from the ground up. They ended up raising an impressive $14,000 for the food pantry!

Rodrigo will fill the important role of Support Services Program Assistant.

Some of Rodrigo’s hobbies include soccer and video games. He spends his weekends either working, chatting with his fiance, or watching Real Madrid games with his dad. A fun fact about Rodrigo is that he traveled to Guatemala three times last year!

He is driven by a desire to support underrepresented students and believes that resources like FAFSA can be life-changing. Thanks to FAFSA, both he and his sister are attending WWU.

Rodrigo is excited to get involved with the community and make a lasting difference in student lives!
