Meet Your SAHCC Team

We have been busy these past few months supporting our current staff and welcoming on new talent to the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce team! These individuals have already hit the ground running this year to make the SAHCC and its Members shine. Through our Communications, Membership, Programs, Administrative, Finance, Business Policy, and Events Departments, we continue to be dedicated to our Members and Partners and look forward to all the future accomplishments of this team.
