I am excited to announce that the 2022 63rd Assembly District Woman of the Year is Daisy Prieto.
Daisy Prieto, a Los Angeles native, is a Financial Analyst for BuildLACCD at Los Angeles Southwest College. Daisy has 20 years of dedicated work in construction project management in both the public and private sectors.
Daisy has a passion for service. After moving to the City of South Gate in 2006, she volunteered her time at community events and became an active member of her local parish. In 2013, she helped start Girl Scout Troop 16325 to help mentor young girls and guide them in becoming active members in their communities. She has been a troop leader for 9 yrs. and continues to make a positive impact in the lives of young girls through Girl Scout leadership.
In 2014, she joined the local Relay for Life event in South Gate as a team captain where she led her team of Girl Scouts in fundraising efforts to help benefit the American Cancer Society. She has helped raise thousands of dollars for this cause and continues the tradition of advocating in the fight against cancer.
Daisy's dedication to the community is long standing. Aside from all the volunteer work she has done, she joined the South Gate Kiwanis club in 2020 and became president during its inaugural year. She led the club through a year of service during an unprecedented pandemic. She helped organize over 40 community service events and helped raise thousands of dollars in donations for the youth and the community of South Gate.
When Daisy is not volunteering, she is spending time with her husband and two children. She is a big Los Angeles Dodgers fan and enjoys attending ball games with her family.
Thank you Daisy for all of the amazing work and service you do in our community!
