Meet Flavio Bravo
State Senator for Arizona's 26th district
Rooted in Family.
A fifth-generation Arizonan, Flavio proudly embraces his family’s Mexican-American heritage and believes that West Phoenix’s cultural diversity is a strength. As a grandson of both a U.S. veteran and an Arizona copper miner, and a nephew of a United Farm Worker organizer, Flavio grew up with a deep admiration for the civil and labor rights movements and is committed to building off the progress made by those before him.
Education Advocate.
Flavio is a proud first-generation college graduate. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Loyola University Chicago, where he had the honor of serving as student body president. Upon graduation, he returned home to teach at Brophy College Preparatory through their Alumni Service Corps program before pursuing his master's degree from the University of San Francisco. Having benefited from strong mentors throughout his life, he understands the importance of paying it forward and centers this value in his work.
Service-Oriented.
Today, Flavio lends his knowledge and expertise serving on the Board of Directors for several non-profit community organizations including Open Hearts Family Wellness in LD 26 and the Kino Border Initiative in Southern Arizona. Each of Flavio’s experiences as an educator, Congressional staffer, and in the nonprofit sector provides him with the skills to help address the district’s most pressing needs while creating opportunities for future generations.
