Hi, I'm Galiana - Proud mom of Gema (rising 4th grader) and Diego (rising 1st grader), and your incoming Parents' Club President. I am so excited to step into this role and build on the incredible energy and spirits this community already has,
My hope for this year is simple: I want every family to feel like this school is a second home - a place where you belong, your voice matters, and your ideas actually shape what we do together. Whether you can volunteer every week or just show up once in a while, there's a place for you here, and I never want anyone to feel overwhelmed or left out.
I'm not new to getting involved around here - you may have spotted me coordinating lunch, coaching basketball, or enthusiastically cheering at the Talent Show (my personal favorite) or the Halloween Parade (a very close second). One thing I feel strongly about is showing up for the incredible people who show up for our kids every single day - from the school and parish staff to the wonderful team at STEP. They deserve our appreciation and support, and championing them will always be a priority for me.
By day, I work in workforce development, helping organizations design programs that put people first - and that same philosophy is what I'm bringing to the Parents' Club. You'll be seen, you'll be heard, and this community will reflect all of us.
When I'm not working or wrangling my two kiddos alongside my husband Jorge, I'm playing volleyball in an adult rec league and hunting down the best ice cream in the East Bay.
I can't wait to meet more of you and make this a year to remember. Come say hi!
Galiana Fajardo
St. Theresa Parents' Club President 2026-2027
