President's Office
Welcome to Luna Community College!
At Luna, we are committed to creating opportunities for all—whether you’re here to earn a degree, enhance your job skills, or simply learn something new. As President of Luna Community College, I am honored to lead an institution dedicated to accessibility, affordability, and community.
I have long valued the spirit of collaboration and teamwork. As a scientist and educator, I’ve learned that success is built through partnership, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving—principles that align with Luna’s mission and vision. Education is not just about knowledge; it’s about fostering a supportive community where every learner can thrive.
Our main campus, located in historic Las Vegas, New Mexico, offers an enriching environment that balances modern amenities with cultural traditions. Whether you’re looking to explore the outdoors, engage with local entertainment, or find a program that suits your career aspirations, Luna has something for everyone. We respect the rich traditions of Northern New Mexico while embracing technological advancements, offering courses that span from science to cybersecurity, nursing, and high-tech welding. No matter where your interests lie, we are here to support your journey.
I am passionate about expanding opportunities and breaking down barriers to student success. With our dedicated faculty, small class sizes, and strong community support, we aim to improve lives and enhance career trajectories. At Luna, you are not just a student—you are an essential member of our community, and together, we will work to ensure your success.
Come join us at Luna Community College, where learning is a lifelong adventure!
