Meet Our Miner Nation Contributors

 Alexandra Sanchez ’17, an El Paso native, currently works as a digital media specialist at a non-profit, Project Vida. She is a proud graduate of The University of Texas at El Paso with a bachelor’s in marketing. She further pursued her master’s degree in digital audience strategy from Arizona State University. She owes all her inspiration to pursue a career in marketing to the American Marketing Association, which she was involved in during her bachelor’s studies at UTEP. Her goal is to eventually run a digital marketing agency, in which she hopes to help small businesses in creating strategies to help grow their online presence. Some recent achievements include running the first fundraising campaign for Project Vida to support mental health in teens. Moreover, she has executed several digital strategies to increase awareness of healthcare services for underserved communities in El Paso, such as creating a podcast named Vida Talks. If you ever see Alexandra, you will notice that she will have at least one yellow item with her, as it is her favorite color. She will probably also tell you about her most recent travel experience, while she is drinking green tea.
