Arizona Collegiate DECA Administrator of the Year: Barbara Gonzalez
\We would like to take some time to recognize Barbara, a Collegiate DECA Advisor, Treasurer, and former state Co-Advisor, whose unwavering commitment to her students has left an indelible mark on the organization.

Barbara has served Collegiate DECA for over 6 years, and during that time, she has tirelessly worked to ensure the success of CDECA programs and events. Beyond her role as an advisor, Barbara has organized numerous career immersion tours and community service events, providing students with valuable opportunities to gain hands-on experience and make a positive impact in their community. Through her efforts, Barbara has empowered students to succeed not only in the classroom but also in their future careers. Her selflessness and dedication to the success of her students are truly commendable, and her contributions to CDECA and her community are immeasurable. Barbara is a true inspiration, and her legacy will undoubtedly continue to positively impact the lives of many students for years to come.
