                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. DAVID G. VALADAO

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, October 4, 2017

  Mr. VALADAO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Mrs. Alicia Wolfe 
Wisecarver for her service to my office and the people of California's 
Twenty First Congressional District.
  Alicia Wolfe was born on June 28, 1987 to Don and Mary Kay Wolfe in 
Anaheim, California. The Wolfe Family eventually settled in Clovis, 
California where she attended and graduated from Clark Middle School 
and Clovis High School. She has three siblings, her brother 
Christopher, sister, Laura, and her identical twin, Emily.
  After graduating from Clovis High School in 2005, Alicia went on to 
attend the University of California at Los Angeles where she received 
two Bachelor of Arts Degrees in both History and Political Science in 
2009. Alicia then returned to Fresno to obtain her Masters in History 
at California State University, Fresno in 2011.
  In July 2013, Alicia joined my team as Constituent Services 
Representative. She quickly proved to be a valuable asset to my 
Congressional Office and earned the title of Constituent Services 
Director. During her time in my office, Alicia maintained an impeccable 
work record and set high standards of organization and customer 
service. She has an excellent eye for detail and was instrumental in 
the daily operations of my District Office. In addition to casework, 
Alicia was responsible for my U.S. Military Service Academy Program, 
where she helped students throughout California's Central Valley 
realize their dreams of attending a military service academy.
  Alicia's willingness to reach out to the community created great 
relationships with local veteran organizations and federal agencies. 
She was respected by her peers and was able to create and foster 
connections with constituents, business leaders, and public officials, 
all of which are integral skills of Congressional Staffers.
  On May 27, 2017, Alicia married her husband Mr. Lee Wisecarver in 
Kingsburg, California. Outside of work, the newlyweds enjoy spending 
time with family, especially their two dogs, Duke and Peter. Peter too, 
was part of our office family, serving as the unofficial mascot.
  Mrs. Wisecarver's time with my office came to a close on September 1, 
2017 so she may pursue her new career as a teacher at Buchanan High 
School in her hometown of Clovis, California. Knowing Mrs. Wisecarver, 
her character, and her work ethic, I have no doubt that she will 
achieve many great things in her future.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in commending Mrs. Wolfe Wisecarver for her 
public service to the people of California's Twenty First Congressional 
District and wishing her well as she embarks on the next chapter of her 
life.
