Julio Chavez
Julio graduated from the MPP in 2024. He is from Albuquerque and earned his degree in Political Science and Economics from UNM in 2022. Julio chose the MPP because he liked how the program was a blend of Economics, Political Science, and Public Administration. He felt that have these three fields combined provide skills that can be applied to a variety of career fields. Julio plans to use his MPP to continue working in the Public Policy space and pursue opportunities in Washington, D.C. Julio’s best memory of the program are the guest speakers in the Policy Seminar and hearing their thoughts on how we can better serve the needs of our community. Julio would like to thank his family for their support, his instructors for their thorough feedback, and his friends for going on beer runs to let him vent.
