Santiago March 2026 DOWNLOADS/LINKS Publication SHARE RESEARCH LinkedIn Facebook X (Twitter) Copy link Overview Latino talent is vital to our workforce—particularly in science, technology, engineering, the arts, and mathematics (STEAM), where innovation and creativity converge to drive economic growth. As artificial intelligence (AI) accelerates changes across industries, the future of work will rely on an interdisciplinary workforce that pairs technical expertise with uniquely human capabilities like creativity and collaboration. Integrating the arts into STEM is essential for national competitiveness; however, Latinos remain significantly underrepresented in these high-wage, high-growth sectors. This executive summary highlights Latino participation in the STEAM education-to-workforce pipeline and actionable strategies for institutions and employers to close persistent gaps in access, completion, and workforce outcomes.

Why are you bringing your talent to Excelencia ? Reflecting on the opportunities that higher education has provided me, I strongly believe that our nation’s future depends on closing equity gaps in educational outcomes. While education has important economic benefits, I also believe that it fosters compassion and provides opportunities for civic engagement. Engaging in national efforts to address post-traditional pathways and ensure Latino students are prepared for the workforce is such a privilege, and what sets Excelencia apart is how we uplift evidence-based practices and meet institutions where they are. How would you describe working at Excelencia ? I am fortunate to collaborate closely with talented and passionate individuals who are eager to work in common cause, support the growth of one another, and celebrate individual and team wins. There is a strong sense of confianza that makes Excelencia’s team special. I feel blessed to be part of an organization where my “why” so closely aligns with my day-to-day work.
