In the 49th episode of our “50 Stories for 50 Years” series, we feature Suzanna Valdez Wolfe, a dedicated leader and the CEO of SHPE. Born and raised in El Paso, Texas, Suzanna’s passion for serving her community has guided her journey—from her formative years on the U.S.-Mexico border to shaping public policy in Washington, DC, and now spearheading SHPE’s mission.
Suzanna shares how her family’s emphasis on service influenced her commitment to creating lasting change, her experiences navigating new environments, and her vision for expanding SHPE’s impact so every Hispanic student and professional in STEM feels supported and empowered. Don’t miss this candid conversation as we explore how collaboration, humility, and a deep sense of purpose have shaped Suzanna’s path—and how they continue to drive the future of SHPE.
