Tripepi Smith is pleased to welcome Chazz Escobedo as its newest junior business analyst.
“I’ve seen firsthand how thoughtful communication can help local governments build trust, share important information and create stronger connections,” said Chazz. “I look forward to bringing my civil service experience to Tripepi Smith, learning from colleagues and helping agencies tell their stories.”
Prior to joining Tripepi Smith, Chazz served as vice president of the Cal Poly Pomona chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America and interned in the Dean’s office at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona). During his internship, he organized a field trip to Dodger Stadium in coordination with the university’s vice president of communications, contributed to hands-on projects and wrote faculty feature stories for Cal Poly Pomona News. His experience reflected the university’s “learn by doing” motto, which shaped his approach to gaining practical experience and developing his skills.
“Chazz brings that hands-on approach to his work while focusing on the importance of relationship building,” said Principal Jen Nentwig. “We are thrilled to see the positive impact he will have on our clients.”
Chazz holds an associate of arts degree in communications from Pasadena City College and a bachelor of science degree in public relations from Cal Poly Pomona.
