Ramon Lopez Serrano

Ramón is a born‑and‑raised native Tucsonan with a passion for supporting and educating youth and young adults, particularly within the city’s marginalized and stigmatized communities. Their work began in 2013 organizing youth-centered art events. After graduating college in 2016, they entered the public health field, working directly with populations at risk of or living with HIV/AIDS. Over the past decade, Ramón continued to expand the ways they uplift and support youth and young adults – contributing their skills across public health organizations, university student affairs, scholarship organizations, and government social work agencies.  Across every role their focus has remained consistent: connecting, nurturing, and educating the community's emerging generations.
