2017-2018 Executive Board
![]() Esmeralda Nava
Vice President External Construction Junior |
My name is Esmeralda Nava and I am currently a Junior in Construction Engineering. I was born and raised in phoenix, while my parents are originally from Mexico. I was first introduced to SHPE by my sister, who had previously worked with SHPE as a part of HBSA. After just a few meetings I quickly became entranced by the atmosphere in the room whenever I went to one. It became my home away from home and as time passed I grew increasingly passionate about our mission and vision. As VP Internal, I want to give you all access to relationships I have created in the past couple of years. I also plan to encourage you all to be more involved within the ASU community and become involved with other events on campus such as community service events, hackathons, and networking events that lead you to become better students and professionals. During this academic year I hope to spread our name even further and to create a team that is as passionate as I am about bringing others into our familia and making sure that our current members are still experiencing and SHPE familia vibe at every meeting, event, and intramural game. Should you need anything at all, or have any inquiries about joining my committee, please feel free to reach out to me at enava786@gmail.com.

![]() Vanesa Contreras Rodriguez Treasurer Business Entrepreneurship Junior |
My name is Vanesa Contreras Rodriguez and I have the privileged of being your 2017-2018 Treasurer! (DISCLAIMER: I am not an engineering major.) I am a Business Entrepreneurship junior at the W. P. Carey School of Business with a minor in Spanish. I joined SHPE de ASU because I saw how welcoming and fruitful the environment was. I was hooked since my first GMB back in August of 2015 and have been an active member ever since. From helping plan Noche de Ciencias and working at tabling events, I have been exposed to the impact I can make on my community by participating with SHPE de ASU. I am an education-driven individual so when I saw that much of our outreach focuses on informing Latinos how to prepare and succeed in a post-secondary career, I knew SHPE de ASU was the place for me.
As your Treasurer, I am looking forward to contributing to past efforts by creating a financially stable and prosperous organization who puts the needs of its members first. I also hope to increase the number of sponsorships for students attending SHPE National Conference and RLDC by 25% and cultivate a larger monetary budget to buy additional SHPE swag, professional materials for our members, and funds for social gatherings. As a college student, I know the financial struggle we face and I want to eliminate any monetary barriers regarding our academic and professional success. My core belief in what SHPE de ASU has set out to accomplish is unwavering and fulfilling what is best for our members is guaranteed. If you would like to contact me, please email me at vcontre4@asu.edu. I am always looking for student leaders to join my Treasurer Team, so if you are interested, give me a holler! Or if you simply have a question about our student organization, I am always a message away. I am here to help YOU succeed, so please use me as a resource, regardless if it is SHPE de ASU related. (Hint: I am very good with professionalism so if you need help with resumes, cover letters, interviews, attire, etc. hit me up!) If you are on LinkedIn, feel free to connect with me, my LinkedIn profile is the following: www.linkedin.com/in/vanesacontrerasr. Hope to work with you this upcoming school year! |
