    On this episode of Social Chats, we chat with Andy Ragano, a school communications professional, small business owner, and community advocate, currently wrapping up her fifth year working in school public relations. She is the founder and CEO of Ragano Photo & Video, a communications and multimedia company celebrating its one-year anniversary in February. Through her work, Andy partners with school districts across California, supporting strategic communications, writing, crisis communications, social media, and an increasing focus on photography and videography that centers on students, educators, and community stories. Andy is also the founder of the Lens & Leadership Mentorship Program, which mentors high school seniors interested in communications, storytelling, and leadership while providing scholarship support to help students pursue their next chapter beyond graduation. Her work is grounded in access, representation, and real-world skill-building for young people.

    A doctoral candidate at the University of Southern California Rossier School of Education, Andy is pursuing an EdD in Organizational Change and Leadership with an expected graduation in May 2026. Her research focuses on women of color in school public relations leadership, examining the systemic barriers, mentorship pathways, and leadership development experiences that shape their careers. Proudly Latina and LGBTQ+, Andy brings both lived experience and professional expertise to her work. She is a mother, a Claremont-based volunteer, and an active community partner who prioritizes collaboration with local nonprofits and small businesses throughout Claremont and the San Gabriel Valley. Across every role she holds, Andy is committed to storytelling that builds trust, strengthens communities, and creates space for voices that deserve to be seen and heard.

  • Social Chats: Shaping Minds & Brands Ep #28 with Mike Hofius
    Dec 17 2025

    Send Lynette a text!

    On this episode of Social Chats, we're joined by someone who traded the baseball diamond for the boardroom and brings that same competitive fire to everything he does. Meet Mike "HOF" Hofius, a sales representative with California Fuels and Lubricants, a Shell Lubricants distributor serving California and Nevada.

    Before making his mark in the energy sector, Mike built his competitive foundation on the baseball field, playing at Long Beach State and later in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. That athletic discipline shaped his approach to sales, where he's now recognized for his strong communication style, leadership, and consistent performance.

    Beyond business, Mike is a devoted family man. He's been married to his wife, Lindsay, for 21 years and is the proud father of two teenagers.

    Whether he's closing deals or cheering from the sidelines at his kids' events, Mike brings passion and purpose to everything he does—and I'm excited to chat with him today.

    On this episode of Social Chats, we will be speaking with Amy Mathews-Perez, Texas-born & raised. Amy has recently retired after 34 years in public education, during which she served as a General Education Teacher, Speech-Language Pathologist, Diagnostician, SPED Supervisor, Principal, Assistant Principal, and Director of Special Education. While her journey of public-school service has come to an end, she now puts energy, effort, and focus into continued service to organizations, schools, and families, and through her LLC. Her passions are communication, relevant learning, and authenticity. She is happiest when she gets to implement these things to inspire & empower others. As a learner, she considers herself an "Experience Expert" because she learns from every experience. She says, “Life is short, but our influence is never ending, so let’s seek joy and create smiles through connecting, sharing, and highlighting the best in others.”
