"As a broadcaster, I constantly saw the need in the Latino community for information on issues that are crucial to the improvement of their lives in the U.S.," said Rozman. "Hispanic Access Foundation provides resources and support systems to communities around the country to achieve that goal. After over 16 years working in news, I see this as a new challenge where I can unite my passion for helping our nation's Latinos with my experience and understanding of the media industry."
