From State Sen. Steve Knight:
I recently hosted a reception to honor the two constituents I chose as the 21st Senate District’s Women of the Year. Patricia Gracia and Patsy Ayala were joined by family and friends for a small reception. During the reception the honorees were presented with Senate Resolutions. Each Resolution highlights the individual’s accomplishments, both personally and professionally in the 21st Senate District.
Patricia Gracia is the founder and president of Power Media Group Inc. and Power Woman Business Center. She and her husband, Tony Gracia, manage a multi–million dollar enterprise that specializes in creating Spanish language media campaigns for high-profile clients seeking to reach the growing Hispanic market. Patricia is a mother of two children, Vanessa and Michael–Anthony.
Patsy Ayala has worked for major companies including Azteca Television, Mobil Oil, and General Electric, where she played an integral role in human resources. She is co–founder of the Ex–A–Tec California Alumni association and is also the CEO of her newest venture, Nuestros Valles/Our Valleys Magazine, the first bilingual magazine catering to the middle/high income bilingual and Hispanic residents within Santa Clarita and surrounding valleys. Patsy is married to Julio del Rio and is mother to two sons, Santiago and Rodrigo.
Steve Knight, R-Antelope Valley, represents California’s 21st Senate District, which includes about half of the Santa Clarita Valley.
