It is an honor to welcome our District Governor Luis Carranza to update us on activities, accomplishments and challenges around District 5340.
Born in Tijuana, Baja California, and raised in San Diego, California, Luis Carranza represents the spirit of borderless service, unity, and opportunity that defines Rotary. At just 7 years old, Luis crossed from one country into another, but more importantly, he began a journey that would lead him across cultures, industries, and communities with one mission: to uplift others.
Luis’s early years were shaped by music, empathy, and service. As a violinist with the San Diego Youth Symphony, he performed across continents. As a teen who volunteered at Grossmont Hospital, he began understanding the transformative power of compassion. After studying Economics at the University of California, San Diego, Luis built a 20+ year career in the mortgage industry, where he currently works as a Senior Loan Officer with PrimeLending. But it was his heart for community that led him to Rotary.
