Info | Patricia is 22nd.+ generation New Mexican and is the daughter of a 94 year old (dec) U.S. Army Veteran from Las Cruces, who served in WWII in the 82nd Airborne/Normandy drop, and in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Her father comes from a rich native cultural heritage dating back over a thousand years from the Cacique lineage of the Piro Manso Tiwa Indian Tribe, Pueblo of San Juan de Guadalupe. Her mother, also deceased, was a native of Las Cruces from a Spanish and Mexican lineage. Her parents instilled the core values of a quality education and service to one’s community.

She has been a union organizer, shop steward and international representative and a champion of equal pay for equal work and for the rights of all workers to earn a livable wage. As a community economic developer and organizer, Patricia has hands on experience in connecting the community with the resources needed to bring improvements and opportunities to residents for sustainable, clean air, and water and access and opportunities for healthy and affordable living.
