Rafael began his career as a Network Architect at Fresno State, where he played a key role in designing and, in collaboration with the Technology Services Field Operations team, implementing the campus's first Ethernet network in 1996. With the support of his family and guidance from his mentors, he became the first in his family to attend and graduate from college. Rafael holds a BS, MS, and Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and Networking/Information Security. He focuses on helping others, solving problems, developing solutions, and is committed to advancing the campus's goals. Before joining Fresno State, Rafael worked as a Systems/Network Engineer in the Space Projects Division at NASA Ames Research Center.
