Estela Ortiz
My name is Estela Ortiz. I teach the regular program and I am on my 8th year of teaching at GCC. I really enjoy working with the students and staff here at GCC. I really love how the community is so involved in our school and always wants to help our students and support our staff.
I was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas. I graduated from Texas Wesleyan University in 2015 with my undergraduate degree in Liberal Studies. On my time off, I spend all my time with my family. I really enjoy being outdoors and spending time on the softball field watching my daughters play softball.
