HCC members should strongly consider voting for Alexis Serrano-Castro to join the Board of Directors because he brings a wealth of experience, strategic insight, and a deep commitment to equitable community development.

As a dedicated professional with the Regional Transportation District (RTD) of Colorado, Alexis has firsthand experience addressing one of the most critical issues facing our communities: fairness, accessible, diverse, and inclusive contracting opportunities related to Denver region’s local and small businesses. His work at RTD for the last 10 years demonstrates his ability to navigate complex contracting systems, federal and state regulations, collaborate across sectors, and advocate for solutions that connect people to opportunity—whether that means connecting local and small businesses with bigger firms in relation to contracting opportunities, addressing a leveled playing field atmosphere and ensuring prevailing wages on construction contracts.

His background positions him to be a powerful voice on the board, especially as HCC continues to prioritize economic mobility, infrastructure equity, and inclusive growth. Alexis understands how construction field intersects with nearly every aspect of community life, and he brings both policy knowledge and a small business-centered approach to the table.

Beyond his professional experience, Alexis has shown a genuine passion for community engagement and cross-cultural collaboration. He is deeply interested in lifting up underrepresented voices and ensuring that HCC remains a platform for innovation, diversity, and impact.

By electing Alexis, HCC members will gain a leader who not only brings agency wise and technical expertise, but also a strong commitment to building bridges across communities and advocating for solutions that are inclusive, forward-thinking, and action oriented. HCC will be lucky to have his voice at the table.
