Thank you for reading more about my candidacy! My name is Corina Lopez, and I'm a San Leandro School Board Trustee with a strong background in finance and technology. On the San Leandro City Council, I'll provide a strong voice, pushing to make public safety a top priority, promote economic opportunity and job creation, and invest in roads, parks and libraries. I am committed to expanding technology and the fiber optic loop to help move San Leandro further into the digital age and to making San Leandro a better place to live and work.

I know from experience that knowledge is the key to success, and that technology can empower everyone to achieve knowledge. I am excited about everything that San Leandro has accomplished over the last few years, and I believe that with continued leadership, San Leandro can become a leading hub in the Bay Area's thriving regional economy. Please join San Leandro's teachers, firefighters, and business leaders in supporting me this November 4th. I would be honored to have your vote!

Occupation:

  • Trustee, San Leandro Unified School District
  • Founding Partner of Pinnacle Vista Technology, LLC

I am a successful businesswoman of over 20 years, and I bring financial expertise to the table. After working for top New York firms as a Financial Analyst, I returned home to California. I am currently a founding partner of a San Leandro based IT Management Consulting firm in its 6th year of business, and I understand what it takes for technology start-ups to succeed.

Education:

I am the daughter of migrant farm workers who followed the lettuce harvests between the Salinas Valley, Bakersfield, and Yuma. I credit my teachers in the public school system with helping me see my potential through education. I graduated from public schools and became the first in my family to attend college. I attended Princeton University and received a Certificate in Finance with distinction from UC Berkeley. I am also a Spanish speaker.
