Alfonso Centeno

Board Member

 

Born in Guadalajara, Mexico, Alfonso has a unique understanding of what it means to be an immigrant and trying to bridge the cultural gap between two countries.  

    

Alfonso and his sisters moved to United States when he was 16 years old to reunite with his mother. After graduating high school in Washington state, he began pursuing work in the restaurant business. He moved to Jackson in 2000 with the idea of opening a restaurant. Within just a few months, he met the love of his life, Cecilia Estrella, and years later they were blessed with the birth of their first son Alfonso Jr. Today, Alfonso is the father of 3 handsome children and the proud owner of 3 sucessful Mexican Restaurants: El Abuelito in Jackson,  Agave in Driggs, and Agave in Afton.

 

Alfonso is deeply involved in La Liga, the soccer league that congregates 25 teams and over 500 players six months out of the year.     

 

Talking with him you will immediately realize that he is very involved in our community, as well as a stronger believer in God.
