VP of Communications

Paola Arellano

I am from El Paso, Texas and I graduated from St. Mary’s University majoring in Political Science and minoring in Communication Studies. Currently, I am the Director of Operations for Congressman David G. Valadao (CA-22) and I have been with him since 2022. I consider myself a goal-oriented, passionate, and strong communicator.

My booming interest in politics stems from the desire to relay non-partisan information to Latino communities in a language they can understand which is why the VP of Communications feels like the perfect role. As a CHLI alumni, I have strived to attend every event, talk to as many Global Leaders as possible, and have my boss continue supporting the organization which proves how much I believe in the cause to have more people like us in politics. Although I handle most operations work in my office, I have a great love for communications and would love to be a part of CHLI on a larger scale.
