Message from Xris:
   Thank you to the Dream Center for all of the work that you do for our campus and community! I am so excited to be a part of the team! I want to recognize  the efforts and accomplishments of the director and students that came before me. I will continue to build upon this great work and continue to serve, first-generation students, immigrant students, undocumented students, DACA recipients, dreamers and their allies. My collective knowledge of University of Utah resources spans over 15 years and countless individuals that make up the educational community. I look forward to connecting and collaborating with partners on campus and in the community at large. In my personal life, I enjoy training Capoeira, riding my bikes, and cruising my Lowrider on the weekends. But mostly, I enjoy spending time with my wonderful wife and two sons. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
