Renee has attended fiesta events her whole life and is excited to participate in such an important San Antonio tradition. Renee’s dreams of becoming La Reina de la Feria de Las Flores started as a child and was inspired by Tom Sandoval. She is determined to represent the title and hold her reign to make him proud.

Renee has always had a passion of giving back to her community through volunteering. She volunteered at the San Antonio Food Bank throughout high school, the Austin Child Guidance Center in college, and currently does pro bono legal work through various organizations in Dallas, Tx. Renee hopes that through her service as Reina de la Feria de las Flores she can encourage the youth of San Antonio to believe in themselves and in their dreams. She knows that education changes lives and strives to encourage the youth to pursue higher education by awarding a scholarship.

As a college graduate and current law student, she understands the importance of mental health in education and lasting careers. As Reina, she plans to advocate for the value of children’s mental health and hopes to help others find safe outlets to express themselves. She plans to help members of her community learn to appreciate the present moments through meditation, breathing exercises, and self-reflection. Renee believes that inspiring our youth to chase their dreams, reminding them they are capable of doing what they set their mind to, and providing them the opportunities to obtain a college degree will allow our community to experience a new generation of diverse and strong individuals doing what they love for the city of San Antonio.

Renee is honored to have this leadership position and the opportunity give back to her city once again. Renee would like to thank everyone who has supported her and cannot wait to serve her community. Viva Fiesta 2023!
