Councilmember Sandra Sepulveda represents district 30 on the Nashville Metro Council. When she first ran for the position in 2019, she was the first Latina elected to the council and the youngest member ever, starting her term at 26. The daughter of two Mexican immigrants, she came to Nashville when she was 5 years old and cares deeply about the city and community she has grown up in and called home for over two decades.

We’re talking with her today about her story, the responsibility she feels as representative of a majority Hispanic district, and her day-to-day reality — and hopes — as she serves on the Metro Council.
