Jaime Anzalotta, the vice provost of student affairs and chief enrollment officer at Miami Dade College, has been appointed to the Board of Directors for the National Community College Hispanic Council.
Anzalotta will assist in creating pathways to success for the Hispanic community at a national level through innovation, leadership and opportunity.
“I was once a shy, sheltered, and introverted kid from Hialeah, Florida who dropped out of high school when I was 16 years old,” Anzalotta said. “To be in the position where I am now that I can serve as a national and local role model not only for students but to other colleagues is a charge I do not take for granted.”
Anzalotta, who has worked at MDC for more than two decades, has also served as dean of students at Wolfson Campus, student life director at North Campus, a professor and an academic advisor.
The 44-year-old has an associate’s degree in social work from MDC, a bachelor’s degree in social work from Florida International University, two master’s degrees—one in social work from FIU and the other in psychology from Northcentral University—and a doctoral degree in conflict resolution and analysis from Nova Southeastern University.
