Greetings! I am Gerald Maldonado, but most know me as “Mr. G.” and I am thrilled to join the Higher Ground team and serve the Chandler community!

Born in Tucson, my family moved to Chandler when I was 5, and I have grown up alongside the community.

The majority of my career has been serving in Education both in and out of the classroom. I have had the amazing opportunity to work with children, infants to graduating seniors, and partner with their families to ensure that every student is achieving their potential.

If I am not working, chances are you can find me at a concert, traveling, or playing with my dogs on the beach!
