Eva-Dina's journey is rooted in public service, advocating for our community's interests. Originally from Texas, she was raised by her mother and father, both public school teachers, and her stepfather, a consumer protection attorney – all of whom instilled a deep sense of public service and justice. Eva-Dina earned her degree in International Relations with a focus on Latin America from Wellesley College and came to Chicago two decades ago to attend DePaul College of Law. Her love for the city has kept her here ever since.
Throughout her career, Eva-Dina has served on the boards of organizations like Lawyers Lend-a-Hand to Youth, which empowers young people through mentorship, and the Saint Anthony Hospital board, a vital safety net hospital serving predominantly Latino and African American communities. She's also lent her expertise to the Chicago Police Board, working to ensure our city's law enforcement is accountable and responsive to our community's needs.
Eva-Dina sums up her mission, saying, "Thanks to my career experiences, I've dedicated myself to issues in transportation, infrastructure, and energy. These areas are fundamental to improving the quality of life for the people in the district I proudly represent."
