Sindi Rosales has served as the Chief Executive Officer for the Epilepsy Foundation Central & South Texas for 23 years. In 1995, with only $1,800 in their bank account, the EFCST Board of Directors voted to close the doors of the failing organization. Ms. Rosales who was a member of the Board of Directors offered to step in as the Executive Director. Sindi’s ferocious passion, dedication, drive, and determination were inspired by her daughter Jessica whose life was dramatically and forever changed after being diagnosed with Rasmussen’s Encephalitis and undergoing a hemispherectomy in 1994. From the humble beginnings which included garage sales, car washes, and bake sales to sustain their existence Sindi has built EFCST into one of the strongest affiliates in the Epilepsy Foundation National Network which last year reached a million dollar budget! When Sindi is not working she is likely enjoying time with her wonderful grandchildren or gardening. Sindi is extremely proud of EFCST’s many accomplishments and privileged to serve as its CEO.
