ISP: OUR HEADS

Alejandra Moreno

Head of School – Instituto Thomas Jefferson Campus Valle Real

Alejandra was born in Mexico, into a multiculturally diverse family comprising of a Mexican father and an Italian mother.  As a child, she learnt English and Spanish and has lived in various countries including Mexico, Spain and Canada, finally settling in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Alejandra has a BA in Business from the Monterrey Institute of Technology in Mexico and a GMBA from Thunderbird International School of Business in Arizona, USA. She is  currently working towards her Masters in International Education.  While her professional life started in business, she found that her true passion was in education when she started teaching university students 20 years ago.  Since then, she has taught in Elementary, Middle and High School as well as being part of the administration team leading the same sections.

Over the last nine years, as part of Instituto Thomas Jefferson, Alejandra has been proud to  support  students to see the best in themselves and motivate them to be agents of change. She has fostered an environment where people feel supported and empowered through the promotion of positive relationships.

In her spare time, Alejandra loves spending time with her two teenage children and her family.  She enjoys cooking, reading historical fiction, travelling, and trying new foods.
