Booster Leadership

    Robin Sanchez

    PRESIDENT

    Robin Sánchez is the proud parent of Mateo, who plays in multiple ensembles. A deep appreciation for music—and a passion for supporting her son—keeps Robin actively involved with the band. She cherishes the band family—the students, parents, and directors—and finds joy in being part of such a supportive, connected community. With Mateo heading into his senior year, you may see her holding on just a little tighter.

    Her advice to other parents? Get involved! You’ll make unforgettable memories with your kids—and friendships that last a lifetime.

  • Connie Ramos

    SECRETARY / CO-BANQUET COORDINATOR

    This year will be bittersweet as Connie will complete 19 years with AEB. She has learned so much, made so many wonderful friends but most importantly made numerous unforgettable memories with all of her children. Her advice? Jump in with both feet!

  • Amy Gonzales

  • Melanie Richarsdon

    VP OF HOSPITALITY / CO-SOCIAL MEDIA COORDINATOR / CO-BANQUET COORDINATOR

    Melanie is eager to get the boosters more recognition and support from the AEB community, but being mom to sophomore synth, tuba, and front ensemble/pit student Logan, is where her heart lies. Her “real” job as an event planner shares many traits with school organizations, plus her love of helping makes this a perfect fit!

  • Carin Greene

    CO-SOCIAL MEDIA COORDINATOR

    Carin is a proud Mom to her sophomore trombone player, Jack! AEB is a family event, as you can also find her Husband Jeff driving one of the AEB trucks and on the side lines as Pit Crew! Joining the board was a no brainer, this has been a great way to stay involved and have fun with all the amazing families that make up Akins Eagle Band!
