Edwin Sanchez Velez

Mr. Edwin Sanchez

Welcome to my page! My name is Edwin Sanchez, and I’ve been part of Valencia College for over 22 years, serving in various roles throughout my journey here. Before transitioning to education, I spent a decade working in the banking industry.

I bring over two decades of industry experience and knowledge to the classroom, and I’m passionate about helping students bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and their real-world applications. My teaching approach is rooted in creating practical learning experiences that empower students to thrive in both their academic and professional lives.

In terms of my formal education, I hold an Associate in Business Administration from Holyoke Community College, a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from the University of Westfield in Massachusetts, and an MBA from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Outside of work, I’m happily married and a proud father of two young adults—a daughter and a son. My hobbies include biking, enjoying music, and spending quality time with my family.

I look forward to supporting your learning journey and helping you achieve your goals!
