Treasurer of the United States Jovita Carranza will give the commencement address at Alverno College’s 157th graduation on May 19. Carranza was made an honorary alumna of the college in 2011, and served on Alverno’s Board of Trustees from 2013 to 2017.

Carranza was sworn in as the 44th Treasurer of the United States in June 2017, and is only the 16th woman to hold the position. As Treasurer, she oversees the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which produces the nation’s paper currency, and the United States Mint, which produces coins. Her signature, along with that of Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, appears on U.S. currency.

Carranza had an extraordinary 20+ year career at United Parcel Service (UPS), where she was the highest-ranking Latina in the history of the company. She worked her way up from a part-time, night-shift box handler to President of Latin America and Caribbean operations. She also founded the supply-chain management company JCR Group, and served as the Deputy Administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) under President George W. Bush.
