Deron Marquez served as chairman of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians from 1999 through April, 2006.
In addition to leading the seven-member San Manuel Business Committee, Mr. Marquez was instrumental in designing and directing a forward looking agenda of social, economic and governance development for the tribal government and community.
“The Academy's program was informative. It strengthened my leadership skills - - something that is so vital to fire departments. The training helped equip me with the tools to build clearer lines of communication and coordination with Tribal, local, state and federal emergency management agencies.”
- Chris Walters, Former Disaster Services Coordinator, San Manuel Fire Department, Highland, California
"The Academy’s training comes from a truly Native American perspective. It honed my interpersonal and communication skills and also gave me a better understanding of new marketing techniques that attract customers, influence public opinion and build support for tribal gaming, all while respecting tribal culture and traditions."
- Jill Philbrook
