About daniela
At the end of the day the city runs on administrative work, the city council positions are service positions. I want to work for you.
I decided to run after looking and speaking to the candidates for my district and finding myself less than excited over my choices this coming November.
I want a city that prioritizes the working class, social programs, the local economy, and rejects exploitative contracts that benefit the few, such as the data centers and the deck plaza. If I had to file to get closer to the change we want to see, then that’s what I had to do.
Throughout my working career I have found that the best way to learn a new industry is through administrative work, building yourself up. By taking administrative positions I have worked my way up to being an education specialist at the City of Austin and writing the multidisciplinary curriculum for their Parks and Recs summer programs; I have gotten my license as a loan officer and learned the ins and outs of the housing industry; and earlier this year I took a step back from my family’s small business to learn about land restoration and conservation.

I was born and raised here in El Paso. Graduated from Coronado High School, class of ‘08, and have a Bachelors in fine arts and innovative education.
I am the co-captain of the first Ullamaliztli team in Texas. That’s the 4,000 year old Mesoamerican sport where players hip-kick a solid 9 lb rubber ball. Our team is the Ahuitzomeh, also known as the ancient water defenders. I am also a member of Las Milpitas del Norte which promotes sustainable agriculture indigenous to the Chihuahua Desert through community gardening/farming. When I’m not farming or hip-kicking a nine pound ball, I’m either hiking along the Franklin Mountains or learning about community organizing.
