Alejandra Alvarez

Alejandra Alvarez grew up in a Catholic household where Catholic values were instilled at a young age, and although she never attended Catholic school, her education and experiences would lead her to pursuing a career in Catholic education. She attended Cal State Long Beach where she graduated with her Bachelors in Liberal Studies with a Multiple Subject Credential and BCLAD Credential; she then completed her Master’s degree in Dual Language Development in 2012.

The summer after she graduated, she utilized her Masters degree and began working for a nonprofit after school program. She worked with donors, community members, and the CEO in order to bring awareness to what students were in need of. She began building relationships with donors and community members and soon began to raise money for the non-profit. After a few years, she sought a teaching position and began working at St. Aloysius as the Middle School Science/Social Studies teacher. She then received the opportunity to go back to school to Loyola Marymount University in order to complete the Integrating Technology Certificate Program for her school and completed a two-year program with Loyola Marymount University in Blended Learning.
