Student Spotlight: Kristian Romero
Meet Kristian Romero, a senior Business Management major from Hutto, Texas, whose journey at Texas State University has been shaped by her strong sense of community, leadership, and an unstoppable positive attitude. For Kristian, choosing Texas State was about being close to home and creating a community for herself. As soon as she arrived, she fell in love with campus and the beauty of San Marcos.
Kristian is an active member of Alpha Xi Delta, where she serves as the External Marketing Director. The organization focuses on raising funds for the Greater San Marcos Youth Council, supporting children in need and teens who are in foster care or homeless. She is also a proud sweetheart of Sigma Alpha Epsilon where she helps support philanthropy events.

Kristian has already made her mark, earning a spot on Dean’s list at Texas State. In high school, she was involved in Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) where she dedicated many hours to becoming a leader in her community and developing people skills.

Throughout her academic and extracurricular experiences, Kristian has developed valuable skills in organization, time management, communication, problem-solving, leadership, and people skills.
