About Alejandro Mendoza

I’m a first-generation student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Marketing (Digital and Integrated Marketing Communications) at the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University, with plans to graduate with honors in May 2028. I am also working toward certificates in Applied Data Analytics and International Business to broaden my skills and enhance my global business perspective. As a proud Dorrance Scholar, I am part of a program that empowers Arizona’s first-generation students to succeed through academic and leadership development, reflecting my commitment to excelling academically and making a meaningful impact in my community.I currently serve as an Adobe Student Ambassador, connecting students with Adobe tools and resources. I lead all marketing efforts as President of Marketing and Communications for the Student Council of Inclusive Excellence (SCIE), overseeing strategy, content creation, and campaigns. For ASU’s Hispanic Business Student Association (HBSA), I collaborate closely with the VP of Marketing and VP of Corporate Relations within their respective committees, developing marketing materials for social media and corporate initiatives.Previously, I served as Executive Assistant for HBSA, where I developed strong skills in communication, coordination, and event marketing. I completed a Social Media Marketing internship with the Greater Phoenix Chamber and a Multimedia Marketing internship with the Chamber Foundation’s education initiative, ElevateEDAZ, gaining hands-on experience in content creation, digital marketing strategy, and design. I also participated in ALPFA at ASU’s pilot consulting group, working on a project focused on advancing Latino representation at executive levels. Additionally, I worked as a Campus Sales Associate for Bounce, connecting organizations with the platform to drive engagement and strengthen professional relationships. These experiences helped me build expertise in marketing, design, communication, and networking.I am eager to find opportunities to gain hands-on experience in marketing and business, including internships, mentorship, and collaborative projects, where I can contribute my enthusiasm, adaptability, and commitment to continuous learning. I look forward to connecting with others in the industry and sharing insights, ideas, and experiences.
