ALPFA Atlanta

✨ Board Introduction: Jose Garcia | EVP Finance (Treasurer) ✨

From the streets of Los Ángeles to the halls of Georgia State () — Jose brings a decade of accounting expertise and a whole lot of corazón to the ALPFA Atlanta board. 🌟

By day, Jose is an Accountant at Cisco Systems, where he works in acquisition accounting — the kind of detail-oriented, high-stakes work that requires precision, trust, and a sharp financial mind. As our EVP Finance & Treasurer, he’s channeling that same energy into building a stronger, more transparent financial foundation for our chapter 💪

But what makes Jose’s story resonate goes beyond the numbers. A proud Latino and GSU alum 🐾, Jose has always felt the pull to give back — to be part of something larger than himself and to help the next generation of Latino professionals find their footing. That’s exactly what brought him to the ALPFA Atlanta board.

💙 “I wish to help ALPFA continue growing and transforming our Latino professionals... through transparency and sustainability.”

We’re thrilled to welcome Jose to the ALPFAmilia and can’t wait to see the impact he’ll help us make this season.

✨ Board Re-Introduction: Luis Torres | EVP Operations ✨

Many of you already know Luis Torres — and for good reason. A proud Colombiano 🇨🇴, Luis has been a steady, behind-the-scenes force helping open doors for Latino students and professionals across Atlanta.

Luis, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of Marketing at (GGC) whose work spans international business and cross-cultural marketing.
