Born to Mexican immigrant parents, Jose Leyva’s story begins in the agricultural fields of Texas, where he worked alongside his family as a young boy. After losing his father at the age of three, his mother’s strength and determination shaped his values of hard work, perseverance, and faith in the power of dreams.
Over the years, Jose’s journey took him from the farm fields to the highest levels of the banking industry. His life is a story of courage, hope, and ambition — proof of what’s possible when resilience meets opportunity.
My siblings and I spent countless days under the relentless sun, harvesting crops and learning firsthand the value of teamwork and determination. Those moments—though exhausting—instilled in me a deep sense of humility and inner strength that would guide me for years to come. Though those days were physically demanding, they were also filled with growth—both in strength and in character. Struggling together under the same sun built a bond between us, an unspoken understanding that we could count on each other through anything. Those were long, grueling, formative days. I carry the lessons of that time—the value of grit and the fulfillment that comes from a job well done—with me to this day.
