2022-2023 President & Vice President
Ballot #2
Mohaddisa Naqvi & Emily Gomez
"As students who have always strived to do their best to be proactive and advocates in their community, becoming ASCC President and Vice President would provide us both with the resources to continue to make a difference here at Cerritos College. With your vote, we would be provided with a platform that can connect us to students as we work to resolve any issues that they may have and to be the voice for those in need. We hope to meet every student's standards in what they envision Cerritos College to be. Thank you for considering us for these positions!"
2022-2023 Student Trustee
Ballot #1
Hector Ledesma
"I am Hector Ledesma, son of Mexican Immigrants and born and raised in Los Angeles. Growing up in a diverse community I’ve also been presented with diverse injustices. However, my inner dreamer strives to make positive changes in my community. For instance, as Co-Director of the Break Free From Plastic Campaign, I helped successfully implement a 7-year elimination plan of single-use plastics at Cerritos College. This journey is valuable because I get to serve a bigger purpose. And as Student Trustee, I will serve and ensure that student voices are heard and your perspective is represented!"
