Meet Your GRID Central Valley Board Treasurer Rodney Roque

Originally from Guam, a United States Island territory in Micronesia, Rodney made the Central Valley his home shortly after graduating from California State University - Fresno (CSUF) in 2009. He earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a concentration in accounting. Rodney initially planned to move to Los Angeles, California after graduation, but after buying a home and seeing his business thrive, his ties to the Central Valley grew stronger, and he decided to settle here.
