My name is Joe Bayona and I am excited to be a part of the UTSA Advising family! I was born and raised in El Paso and earned my B.A. in 2019 and M.A. in English and American Literature in 2022 from the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). Until recently, I worked as an Admissions Counselor at UTEP but continue to serve as an Adjunct Instructor in the First-Year Composition Program. In my free time I enjoy reading, playing video games, and spending time with friends and family.
