Jesús Ernesto Peña belie-
ves his main role is in making
dreams come true. As a native
of Mexico, Peña is passiona-
te about serving the Hispanic
community, particularly when
it comes to the complex topic of
immigration.
A graduate of the University
of Houston, Peña started his pro-
fessional career at Lopez Negrete
Communications which claims
to be the nation's largest inde-
pendent, Hispanic-owned and
operated full-service advertising
and marketing services agency.
He further developed his
career at Univision Communi-
cations, the leading Hispanic
media company in the nation,
where he believes life guided
him to find ways to give back to
the community.
In 2017 Peña established the
Dreamer Foundation, a non-pro-
fit organization that provides as-
sistance to Dreamers. Dreamers
are the children of immigrants
who were brought to the US
when they were very young. They
qualify for a work permit under
the Deferred Action for Child-
hood Arrivals (DACA) executive
order, which President Barack
Obama issued in June, 2012.
Currently Peña resides in
Chicago where he works for Del-
ta Air Lines and Aeroméxico. The
two carriers operate the largest
transborder airline alliance bet-
ween Mexico and the United
States. His leadership skills and
international expertise are hel-
ping to steer the U.S Hispanic
market to new levels of growth,
while he continues to give back
to the Dreamers.
