Excerpt
In the little town of Cuomo, Puerto Rico, Dr. Tony Ortiz was the third of 13 kids raised by parents whose work ethic, faith, and love for their children produced a tight-knit family. With added guidance and support from the Catholic Church and an afterschool program, the “it takes a village” mentality took root and helped get him to Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, where he found his calling in sports medicine.
Eventually he became director of sports medicine, and as he developed relationships with students, colleagues, staff and community leaders, he became a liaison to the Latino community.
Now serving as the associate vice president of the first-ever Latino Affairs Office at Wright, Ortiz has an official home for outreach programs that not only highlight Latino potential but reap benefits for the university.
